In this episode, Marissa and Ken dive into the universal experience of missing a goal, showing why even the most driven people face setbacks. They share strategies for navigating the emotions that come with falling short and explain how to turn those moments into valuable growth opportunities. If you're ready to see missed goals as fuel for resilience and progress, this episode is for you.


Key Takeaways

  1. Recognize You’re Not Alone: Everyone misses goals, even the most successful people. Give yourself grace and take a breath.
  2. Let Regret Be Your Teacher: Instead of dwelling on the loss, use regret to reconnect with what matters and fuel future efforts.
  3. Use the After Action Review: Assess your approach by asking what worked, what didn’t, and what you can do differently next time.
  4. Commit to Dreaming Again: Embrace the courage to set new goals, knowing that setbacks are stepping stones in your journey.
