Embracing Mistakes: The Leader’s Path to Growth and Self-Kindness

We are all making mistakes, all the time.

And leaders more than most – because the more decisions you make, the more mistakes you’ll make.

Pause for a minute to absorb this truth. Get comfortable with it.

You will make more mistakes than the vast majority of your peers. So when you stuff-up, you’ll need to speak kindly to yourself.

Don’t judge yourself too harshly. You may not be where you want to be, but you’re not where you used to be either.

Encourage yourself.

We are all works in progress.
