  1. What happened to the gymnast in the first part of the video?
  2. Did he let this affect his next performance?
  3. What happens when you suffer a failure? 
  4. Do you get down on yourself and let it cause you to lose focus?
  5. What does it mean to have a short memory in sports?
  6. Do you practice having a short memory in your sport so that you can continue to compete at the best of your ability?
  7. Give an example of when you were able to come back from a failure.
