Hi this is Tutor Nick P and this is Quotes 260. The quote today is by Jeremy Lin. It's

Present continuous

first time we are doing a quote by him.  Of course  a famous NBA basketball player.

The comparative

Okay. Let's take a look at the note here.  Here is his quote, " You don't get better if

you win all the time,  you look at yourself more when you lose. " Okay. Let's

take a look at this.  Jeremy Lin rose to stardom in 2012 with an incredible hot

streak to become the first American you know,  Chinese,  Taiwanese basketball player.

You know,  especially that grew up in the US. Not just ... Yeah. That just really kind

of imported and you know signing a contract. He's the first one that really

grew up in the US. Okay good.  He started a global craze and picked up

the nickname,  Linsanity. Yeah.  So yeah during 2012 he

was  really super hot at that time. But anyway let's continue with the quote

here for now. What Jeremy Lin is trying to say with this quote is that losing is

not always a bad thing. If we can be more reflective. You know,  think back on it and

learn from our losses or failures that is the time we can grow. If we choose to

be honest with ourselves and admit flaws that may have led to losses,  this is the

time to improve ourselves. Our losses teach us humility. Yeah. Definitely. And if

we use these experiences the right way,  it can help to make us better. It is a

little similar to the proverb you know,  we covered or I covered in other videos

before. When life gives you lemons make lemonade. Try to make the best of it. You

know by learning about it. Because  if you don't,  a loss is just a loss.

But if you,  if you if you look at it you examine it and you try to learn from it

then you can make something good out of it. Our experiences good or bad are meant

to teach us. Another aspect of Jeremy Lin was not only his ability to play but

also his maturity and deep-seated religious background which really made

him appear like a genuinely good person and worthy of being a role model. Which

is not easy to come by these days. Anyway,   I hope you got it.  I hope you found it

informative. Thank you for your time. Bye- bye.
