Happy Sunday! 

Learning to Win… and Learning to Lose

This week, we are off on another adventure… this time with The Bennetts!

I believe I have shared many times about our grandson Jacob. He loves playing baseball. After being selected to play in the 10U Majors All Star Tournament, we received some exciting news. Jacob was recruited to play in the 10U All American Tournament in Georgia!

What an honor! Robert and I certainly didn’t want to miss this opportunity to cheer him on.

We are once again hitting the road. This time, we will be cheering for our grandson and the All-American team he will be playing with!

There is something so special about watching these young men play their hearts out. At just 10 years old, they are already learning to experience the incredible joy of winning and the disappointment of losing.

I love a great competition. But when I recognize the talent, effort, and heart of my competitor, I find myself wanting to cheer them on, too. I know I will win some and lose some. And when I lose, I can still be happy for the person who won.

But that can be a difficult lesson for a 10-year-old.

These boys have been training for approximately five years already. And they have been taught to HATE to lose! So, when the game doesn’t go their way, the disappointment can be heartbreaking.

As a life coach and grandmother, my instinct is to run over, give Jacob a big hug, and say:

“Look at all the lessons you learned from this game… it will be okay!”

Of course, my grandmotherly encouragement isn’t always allowed in baseball! 😊

But it got me thinking about how much this applies to life.

Sometimes life can be harsh. We lose games. We lose jobs. Marriages end. Our health diminishes. Relationships change. Dreams don’t unfold the way we hoped.

And in those moments, it can be hard to see anything beyond the disappointment.

But what if we could step back and ask ourselves:

What did I learn from this experience?

What did it teach me about myself? What can I do differently next time? How can I grow stronger, wiser, and more compassionate because of what happened?

Losing does not mean we are failures. Disappointment does not mean the journey is over. Sometimes, the very experiences we wish we could avoid become the lessons that prepare us for what comes next.

Whether you are 10 years old playing baseball or an adult navigating one of life’s unexpected challenges, I want to challenge you:

Look at all the lessons you learned from this experience… it will be okay!

Celebrate the wins. Learn from the losses. Cheer for others. And remember that your worth is never determined by the outcome of a game or a season of life.

Sometimes the greatest victory is not winning at all… it is learning how to get back up, keep going, and become a better version of yourself.

Because I want to be fully present for Robert, Jacob, Claire, Bryan, and Brittney during this special adventure, I have selected some wonderful classes for you to enjoy while I’m away.

These classes focus on dealing with what is, accepting life as it unfolds, and learning how to make the most of every experience.

I trust you will enjoy them and perhaps discover a lesson that speaks to exactly where you are in your own life right now.

As for me, I’m looking forward to making memories, cheering on Jacob and his team, and being present for all the moments this adventure has in store for us. 💜

Here are some important events and workshops in The Classroom that will help with creating positive change in your life:

It is a new week and here is what’s happening on

The Lillian McDermott Radio Show/Classroom!

 

 

Monday, 11/9/26 Facebook Throwback Party 8:05 am ~ There are times in our lives that we use words like “fight,” “work hard,” or “struggle,” to describe our life.  But these words can cause our body to break down. Perhaps it is appropriate to work towards creating and achieving the life we want to create. How do we just embrace what is? I will share how we can improve on what is going wrong, by focusing on what we want. (Aired 11/16/18)

 

Tuesday, 11/10/26 Facebook Throwback Party 8:05 am ~ When we hold on to past traumas, even when we ignore them and act as they never happened, they affect how we view others, our circumstances, and the world. If you are tired of putting yourself last, if you desire to leap out of your skin, if you are about to make a change and are fearful, perhaps we can take this leap together. Many times, we think we are selfish if we put ourselves first. Let’s change that thought… I will share the importance of valuing everything in life, especially ourselves. (Aired 2/8/24)

 

Wednesday, 11/11/26 Facebook Throwback Party 8:05 am ~ I am still on cloud-9 about the I AM the SOLUTION Natural Health Summit! It was full of so many gifts, lessons, and surprises. From the moment we arrived until the moment we left; it was apparent that there is a need to look at the most important aspect of health… Our Mindset! So, before I take some much-needed time off, it is time to look at our mind and see how we hold ourselves back. Also, on May 14th we will celebrate another year in The Classroom. I will share my reflections on the past, present, and future of The Classroom! (Aired 5/2/24)

 

Thursday, 11/12/26 Facebook Throwback Party 8:05 am ~ As we move into the holiday season, many of us feel pressure to do more, give more, and be more. What if this year we focus instead on being present with childlike curiosity? Over the years, I’ve loved watching our grandchildren during the holidays. I often wonder how they are experiencing these moments and what priorities might look like through their eyes. Childlike curiosity softens stress, invites joy, and deepens our connections with loved ones. It can help us savor moments we might otherwise rush through. Imagine how your priorities might shift if you approached this season with the wonder of a child. I will share simple suggestions to reconnect with curiosity, practice gratitude, and embrace the kind of joy that can transform the season from overwhelming to uplifting. (Aired 12/4/25)

 

Friday, 11/13/26 Facebook Throwback Party 8:05 am ~ We all encounter difficult people at some point in our lives. How we respond to them often reveals more about our own emotional health than theirs. It’s easy to feel triggered, defensive, or even powerless when someone behaves in ways that feel disrespectful, confrontational, or dismissive. Yet these moments can become powerful opportunities to grow in patience, boundaries, and self-awareness. When we learn to pause, respond thoughtfully, and remain grounded in our values, we begin to shift the dynamic from frustration to empowerment. I will share how understanding how to navigate these relationships with clarity, compassion, and healthy limits can transform difficult encounters into lessons that strengthen our character and deepen our inner peace. (Aired 3/19/26)

 

It is a busy week and I hope you will set your reminder to meet me on the air…  Let’s listen, discuss, and all learn together!
