Sometimes people or institutions hurt you. That promotion didn’t happen, the project failed, or your significant other let you down.
It is inevitable. Perfection isn’t sustainable.
After the disappointment, you are left with a choice.
Two options:
- Step forward, take your lumps, and learn in the process. This is going to sting. You learn, but you are vulnerable.
- Step backwards, protect yourself and hope for the best. This is going to burn later, but you have to option to recover and regroup.
