Can we learn while we celebrate?

Winning has a way of making everything alright for a little while. That fact can help in the short term but can be dangerous in the long term. Losing has a way of magnifying areas that caused the loss. Every team should celebrate their wins but they should be mindful when they do. It’s difficult to learn while we are in a celebratory mode. Losses have a way to motivate learning that the satisfaction that comes with winning lacks.
