Actionable tips:

• When something goes wrong, take a moment to step back and ask, “What can I learn from this?” This shift in judgement can transform setbacks into growth opportunities.
• Instead of reacting immediately to a challenging situation, pause and consider your response. This moment of reflection can help you respond in a way that aligns with your goals and values.

“It’s not what happens that stresses people, but how they interpret those things.” - Epictetus

When faced with challenges – be it tough clients, lost deals, or fierce competition – take a moment to pause and reconsider your response. It’s important to remember that we have the power to choose our reactions. 

Instead of seeing setbacks as failures, view them as learning opportunities.

Like the hero in a film, each challenge we must overcome is a step towards growth.

Remember, the events we face don’t upset us; it’s how we interpret them that does.

Embrace this mindset, focus on what you can control, and navigate each situation with resilience. 

Remember you will die.
