Reflect on successes and failures from "summary" of Procrastinate on Purpose by Rory Vaden
The topic of reflecting on successes and failures is an important one. Taking time to look back on the situations we have faced can help us to better understand our strengths and weaknesses and can be a great motivator for future success.- It's important to reflect on the successes and failures that life puts in your path, it can be a good way to learn from mistakes and figure out how you can improve.
- Instead of shying away from failure, try to draw something positive from it; what lessons can you learn and take forward?
- Look back at past successes without complacency, as there is always room for improvement.
- Taking time to celebrate successes will give you extra motivation to keep striving for better results.
- Think about the most difficult times and how you overcame them. What strengths did you use to achieve success?
- Acknowledge your accomplishments and make sure, no matter small or big they are, that you’re proud of them and note how those efforts have contributed positively to your growth.
- Facing up to challenges helps to build resilience and emotions such as tenacity, daring, enthusiasm will often guide you through even tough moments.
- Stop worrying about failing; remember that if we only attempted tasks we knew we could complete without challenge then we would never have any meaningful successes.
