If you go through life with tunnel vision, you might miss some chances for luck 🍀 to find you. Instead, as you pursue goals, remember failure is not a setback it is a next step.

Be open–people who follow their curiosity and ask for help along the way:

• Are skilled at creating and noticing opportunities.
• Make good decisions by listening to their intuition.
• Create opportunities through positive expectations.
• Adopt a resilient attitude that transforms hard events into “learning opportunities.”

🔁Try it!

1. Brainstorm a list of all the times you failed. Hello, we’ve all failed many times so don’t be shy!
2. Instead of writing #fail make a list of hashtags that show all the things you learned from those failures.
3. Example–#newskill #connections #idontwanttodothatagain #newhobby #friends #foundwhatiwanttodo #failforward
