Disappointed by a loss? Being cut from a team? Frustrated with yourself about a poor decision that cost your team? Good. That means you care.
Feel the emotion. Acknowledge that the moment/experience sucked. Just don’t wallow. Own the disappointment for a short while, then move on and get back to work. Use these moments to give you data about areas where you could improve.
Think about every “failure” as an opportunity. What you do AFTER a perceived failure is what gets noticed.
What if you reframed the moment as a chance to showcase your resilience, perseverance, determination and work ethic?
Your ability to pick yourself up, dust off and continue to grind following heartbreak is what will set you apart, and showcase an elite mindset.
