Do you punish yourself for every mistake, or do you use them as learning opportunities?

All of us make mistakes in our personal and professional lives. It’s part of being human. 

Although all mistakes are not created equal, they do all have the same essential quality: they provide a window of opportunity to grow. 

However, we didn’t always have this mindset when it came to making mistakes. Mistakes or failures used to be so detrimental to our mindset that they would cause anxiety and panic attacks, insomnia, and even nausea.

It took rewiring how we look at our failures to rewire how we react to them.

In this episode, you can expect Kara and Jack to talk about:

  • Understanding the distinction between making a mistake and turning it into a learning experience
  • What the differences between falling into a failure quicksand trap is, a depression blanket, and why a narrative change is your way towards transformation
  • Why the win or learn mentality is the way to go
