“If you learn from defeat, you haven't really lost.”

Simplified Meaning:
When you don't succeed at something but you learn from it, then you didn't really fail. Let's say you try to build a birdhouse but it falls apart. Instead of feeling bad, you figure out what went wrong—maybe the nails were too short or the wood too weak. Next time, you use what you've learned to make a sturdy birdhouse. So, the first failure actually helped you get better. This idea is useful in life because everyone makes mistakes. What matters is using those mistakes to improve yourself. If you get a bad grade on a test, study what you got wrong and you'll do better next time. In sports, if you lose a game, think about where you can improve for the next one. Each setback becomes a lesson that makes you stronger and wiser.
