Failing By Design

Happy Tuesday to everybody,

I had several topics to post today, but I read this article, Failing By Design, this morning and it trumped everything. Many times, we look at ourselves as the high performers and overachievers. We're the ones with all of the answers, right? Well, what happens when our answers are wrong? What do we say when somebody proves that we are not so smart after all? Sometimes, in order to learn, we have to allow ourselves to learn things the hard way. That means that not every initiative will be a success and not every idea is a good one. Some days will start off promising and end up disastrous. The key is analyze what happened and turn it around to your benefit. I don't always know what is right, but I do try to find what is wrong as quickly as possible so that I do not lose too much time investing my energies in distractions and deviations.

Enjoy the article and enjoy your day!
