Embrace the setbacks

Tim Bunting Kiwi Yamabushi

Setbacks are setbacks if you let them be setbacks. Of course when you’re trying new things, not everything will go smoothly. That’s what I would call a setback, a little hump on the road, or sometimes a big one.

That’s part of the excitement though, you go into new projects knowing that there will be setbacks, and you mentally prepare to deal with them when they arise. When doing new things though, those setbacks are highly unpredictable. This just means that you need to be highly innovative to overcome them.

Don’t fear the setbacks, embrace them. They are your chance for growth, they only lead to growth one way or another.
