Here's how you can maintain a positive mindset in a creative problem-solving career when faced with failure.

By definition, “failure” is defined as a lack of success or the inability to meet an expectation. Start by omitting the word “failure” from your vocabulary. Instead, flip the script, using terminology associated with an after-action review (AAR) - “strengths” and “improvements”. Make it a habit to respond to incidents, exercises, and projects with an analytical mindset. Personal and professional growth is never failure.

As Thomas Edison famously said, "I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work." This perspective underscores the importance of persistence and positivity in the face of adversity. So, keep your spirit high, stay curious, and let each setback fuel your determination to innovate and solve creatively. Remember, failure is not the end but a part of the journey towards mastery. Embrace it with resilience and a willingness to adapt. Celebrate your efforts and progress, no matter how small, as each attempt brings you closer to breakthroughs.

When tackling challenges, we will undoubtedly make mistakes, make poor decisions, and face obstacles. Failure should not be seen as a final roadblock but rather a chance to evolve and create something new. It's important to openly acknowledge failures, assess their causes, and extract essential lessons for progress. Accept failure as a natural part of the process. This involves fostering an environment where setbacks are openly discussed, and teams have the chance to understand and grow from their errors, making necessary adjustments that lead to ultimate success. So, instead of fearing failure, let's view it as a catalyst for progress. By openly acknowledging and learning from our missteps, we pave the way to new opportunities.

▪️Embrace Failure as Learning: View failures as opportunities to learn and grow, understanding that each setback brings valuable insights. ▪️Reflect on Successes: Remind yourself of past successes and accomplishments to maintain confidence and motivation. ▪️Stay Resilient: Develop resilience by focusing on solutions and remaining adaptable in the face of challenges. ▪️Seek Support: Lean on colleagues, mentors, or friends for encouragement and perspective during tough times. ▪️Keep Innovating: Continue to experiment and explore new ideas, knowing that persistence often leads to breakthroughs..

O "POINT OF VIEW" nessa hora é muito importante. Quando você abraça o seu fracasso e olha ele por um perspctiva diferente, você encontra um novo caminho a seguir. Thomas Edison, o criador da lâmpada, uma vez disse: "Eu não falhei. Apenas descobri 10 mil maneiras que não funcionam." A cada fracasso você está um passo mais perto do sucesso.

A curiosidade é o combustível para a resolução criativa de problemas. Ao enfrentar o fracasso, continue fazendo perguntas. Explore o "porquê" e o "como" das falhas. Essa abordagem pode revelar novas perspectivas e caminhos inovadores, mantendo sua mente engajada e aberta a possibilidades ocultas.

Continuous learning gives you more perspectives which allows you approach a problem from different angles that gets you closer to success.

Feedback is powerful because, it allows you measure progress and optimize for more progress. We must be open to all forms of feedback and must put systems in place that gives us feedback.

I've learned over the years that no matter what you do, it's never a failure. There might be a few minor bumps along the way that you may need to smooth out in order to make your runway. When all is said and done, you TRIED and that what matters. The only way to fail at anything is to not try. Mistakes are foundations that lead to greatness because you can't make something perfect without practice. So that's what I tell myself, the only way to fail is to not try an dby not trying you are only failing yourself. Don't lead by example, be the example.
