Time to heal

FabrizioLeave a comment

You need to give wounds proper time to heal.

Of course, you want to get back to work. Of course, you want people to accept your point of view and get back to their tasks. Of course, you are all working on something bigger and the time spent grieving is time not spent pursuing a new opportunity.

But wounds do not heal as fast as you’d want them to. People do not heal as fast as you’d want them to. You do not heal as fast as you’d want to.

Give it time. And in the process, do listen. You will learn something about wounds, people, and yourself.

Getting ready for the next wound.

Joy and success

Joy comes from doing something you would do independently of the outcome.

Success – i.e., the outcome – comes from sticking with that something for long enough.

Simple, not easy.

Blessings

Mistakes are a blessing.

If you have the patience to acknowledge them, accept them, analyse them, and discuss them, they are the easiest and surest way to become better at what you are trying to do.

Too serious

Don’t take yourself too seriously. Make sure you have enough space to even make fun of your failures, your fears, your weaknesses.

We are wired to spot the threatening, the bad, the negative. But for most of us, in our modern world, that is very often overreaction. Bombing a presentation, missing a quarter’s goals, getting rejected is not going to be defining our own persona.

Unless you let it.

When you fall

When you fall, you develop fear.

Some get back on the horse right away, some take their time, some never try again. I am not sure which one is better.

But when you fall, you develop fear.

And that’s something important to keep in mind as you work your way towards success.
