Defeat, A Lesson

June 8, 2026 by Bill McNulty

Even a solid defeat can be a lesson to learn

With experience to gain around every turn

In life, there will always be events with a setback

Study, learn, think and soon you are back on track

Game day, practice, even when you are outscored

Practice, train and game day stats can’t be ignored

The wrong words in a speech can be a great lesson

Rewrite, rehearse, next time spot on without question

That extra effort when you can think on your feet

Always be aware and learning, even in a defeat
