Why Learning From Your Disappointments Makes You A Better Photographer

Thank you for listening to The Photo Flunky Show episode 32.

Lee and I discuss some of our disappointments in photography and how to use them as learning tools. If you've ever had success at anything in your life, I'm willing to bet you made some mistakes on your way up the ladder.

Well, photography is no different. There will be disappointments. We talk about things you can control and how to deal with the things that are out of your control. Sometimes you may not get what you had in mind, but there may also be opportunities that come with disaster.

Let us know what you think in the comments, or share a story of what you learned after a disappointment. It may help someone else along the way.
