Hey I'm Listening With Dr. JoanFailing Forward | Dr. Joan speaks with Shireen Spencer Part 5Failing forward involves shifting our perspective to focus on the positives of what did happen rather than dwelling on what did not. Instead of fixating on perceived failures or setbacks, we can choose to learn and grow from them. It's not the goals that you have failed or missed but sometimes the goalpost needs changing. Embracing a mindset of resilience and gratitude allows us to recognize the valuable lessons and opportunities hidden within each experience. By reframing failures as stepping stones toward progress and success, we unlock our potential, cultivate perseverance, and pave the way for future achievements.
