What I've realized is when things don't work out, what the leader does is this. You feel the pain. You notice the disappointment. You never want to suppress that. That would build up the toxic emotions within you. Feel the disappointment. If it's, you know, you forgot your keys somewhere, you lost your wallet, you missed a train, you missed a meeting, you lost a sale. Or maybe it's something heavier. got your heart broken, you just lost your job. When those things happen, feel the emotion. Do not suppress it because the quickest way out of the painful or sad emotions is straight in. But here's the real key. Ask yourself, what's the opportunity here? How can I use this small or large negative event to grow? How can I use this situation to give me more wisdom, to give me more acumen, to make me more experienced? How can I use this situation to strengthen me and fortify me? How can I use this situation to become more authentic and more real? Because it's the difficult things in life that crack open our social mask and allow us to be more real and more authentic. How can I use this situation to build my relatability so I'm more relatable to human beings? And ultimately, how can I use this situation as fuel to make my life even better.
