Have you ever suffered a setback? Sure you have – we all have.
I finished in the top 10 of my class so was going to be featured onstage at graduation. Oops…I overslept and was late for rehearsal, so I walked with the rest of the class instead of in the spot I’d earned. At the time I was so disappointed in myself, in whoever made the stupid rigid rules, and mainly in myself.
Did I mention the rest of the graduates walked in alphabetical order and my last name starts with a W?
At the time I was focused on how unfair it felt, how I’d screwed up, and how my parents were probably tsk-tsking inside their heads as they waited for their smart but careless child to get her diploma.
Sometimes what looks like a problem is actually the fertilizer for your personal or professional growth. That might have been the last time I overslept for something where others needed me to be on time.
Ever faced a setback that felt big and bad, only to discover that it created a desire to do better? Next time something in life causes you to stumble, look at the setback as a chance to reassess your path, and turn that setback into fertilizer for your future.
