Rise to the occasion

Rise to the occasion

Whenever a failure happens, we can focus on what went wrong,

Or on who’s responsible,

Or, we can get super curious about it. And ask questions like:

What assumptions was I making about the situation?

What can I learn from my experience?

How can I use this as motivation to succeed the next time?

What would I tell my younger self to better prepare for this kind of challenge?

Constructive answers to these kinds of questions will shape the next steps of your mission.

And over time, you may even develop an appreciation for the initial failure.

Because without it, you wouldn’t have been mentally prepared to rise to the occasion the next time.
