Fail, adapt, thrive for life | Prof. Manu Kapur
In this episode we explore how the skills needed to live a longer healthier life can be honed through our own failures. Prof. Manu Kapur discusses the concept of 'productive failure' and how learning from our mistakes can lead to deeper understanding and personal growth. He shares his journey from aspiring soccer player to a researcher in learning sciences, discovering the importance of failure as a mechanism for learning.
The conversation explores how these principles can be applied to health, fitness, and personal development, as well as the significance of setting realistic goals and learning from both personal and vicarious failures. Kapur also highlights the need for resilience in the face of unexpected setbacks and the importance of social connections in achieving long-term health and well-being.
Kapur is a professor of Learning Sciences and Higher Education at ETH Zurich and the Director of the Singapore-ETH Center.
