Good question, I'm also curious about what techniques others use. Personally, I try to take a break and reassess my initial plan, looking for new solutions.

Cedric · Answer

When things don't go as planned, it's essential to maintain a growth mindset. Start by calmly assessing the situation to identify what went wrong and what can be learned. Then, pivot quickly by setting new, realistic goals and focusing on actionable steps to move forward. Remember, flexibility and adaptability are key in turning setbacks into opportunities.

Personally, I need some time to stay with my disappointment. So, I give myself few hours or few days to feel whatever comes. It's uncomfortable, but deep down, I know it's temporary and I always find a way to come back to my mojo!
