My video review:

    "Mastery is in the reaching, not the arriving." How to embrace the near win is to know the mastery. I think it is the most important thing in this lecture. Also, she points the key, success is a moment in time, but the mastery is eternal. If you just win it once and others all failed, that win can't represent anything. Maybe it is just a luck, not your actual strength. Thus, the real win is the process of win.
    As for  the speaker, she used lots of examples to explain the incomprehensible concept. It is really good to listeners. Though her speech speed is quit fast, she will emphasize the important part so that we can know what is the key.
    This is a really good speech. The speaker let me understand what is crucial. So called success is not the surface meaning, it is about what you do to get win.
