RAPP'S GLOBAL CEO, MARCO SCOGNAMIGLIO, WITH FORBES, ON LEARNING FROM YOUR MISTAKES

February 03, 2020

"Groundhog Day makes me think not of the superstition that our late-winter weather patterns will be determined by whether a hibernating rodent emerges from its burrow on Feb. 2 and sees its shadow or not. Instead, I think about Phil Connors in the movie Groundhog Day. Phil, a TV weatherman played by Bill Murray, is sent to Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania, to cover a Groundhog Day event and gets stuck repeating the same day over and over until he finds a way to make it work to his advantage.

Entrepreneurs and business leaders may not relive the same day as literally as the fictional Phil Connors, but repeating a mistake can certainly feel like an unfortunate case of déjà vu. Most successful entrepreneurs are bound to have lost some time or money due to a business misstep at some point—making mistakes is part of the package. The key to success lies in learning from the mistakes you make."
