“I never wanted to lose, but unfortunately, I think when you do lose, you learn some of the biggest lessons,” Serena said. “And every loss that I had, I needed to actually become Serena Williams, or I would have never been this person—had I not taken some of those really, really hard falls and some losses that, quite frankly, sucked.
“It was very difficult to watch go back and watch the footage of why I lost, but it also helped me though. Like with investing, if I do something wrong—if this didn’t go well, why didn’t it go well; what did we like about it, what can we learn from this—and so I’m bringing that tennis aspect across the board.”
