The Art of Strategic Retreat and even pivoting to new prospects or industries.
In the relentless pursuit of our goals, we are often reminded of the adage "fall seven times, get up eight." It's a mantra that stresses resilience and determination, encouraging us to persevere despite setbacks. However, there comes a point when blindly persisting in a fruitless effort becomes counterproductive. In such instances, the wisdom lies not in getting up again and again but in knowing when to fold, when to pivot, and when to redirect our efforts towards more promising prospects.
