Turning Setbacks into Comebacks: Finding the Gift in Failure

01/29/24 • 19 min

In this episode, I tackle the topic of failure and mistakes, discussing what happens in our brain when we make mistakes and how we can train ourselves to deal with failure more effectively. I emphasize the importance of maintaining a positive mindset, preparing for failure, and analyzing mistakes only to the extent of understanding why things went wrong and what we can do differently during the next encounter. The brain's reaction to success and failure is outlined and why it can respond either productively or avoidantly when we fall short. I conclude with suggestions to help our brains manage failure better. I highlight the invitation to embrace our failures and mistakes because they will most surely lead to personal growth, a fuller manifestation of potential and more success in areas that matter most.
