After you make a mistake, it’s easy to focus intently on your defects. You feel lost, confused sometimes even angry.

But here’s the thing—some of the most successful people don’t avoid making mistakes. You know what they do instead? They fail forward. Meaning, they take their mistakes, failures and turn them into meaningful success.

So how can you develop this resiliency superpower? For one thing, get your mindset right. Don’t be a victim. Be open to playing an active role in negotiating a new direction for your future.

Ask yourself these questions:

✨if I knew I couldn’t fail I would....

✨if I wasn’t afraid about the opinions of others I would....

✨if I didn’t have to get permission I would...

✨if money were no object I would....

At the end of the day, it’s really only you against you.  ...
