Assignment 21
Title: How to Fail at Almost Everything and Still Win Big
Theme: Failures are detrimental only if you don't learn from them. It's what we gain from these failures that matter the most.
Connection: Failures are to be expected in life because no one is perfect. Failures are experiences to be learned from so that you make a better product of it. Taking the feedback of customers with a new product is more beneficial than one would think in a failure.
Exercise: The exercise would revolve around creating systems rather than goals. It is important to know that goals are different than systems because goals can be discontinued or stopped due to either lack of interest or willpower. Systems are processes where one can improve themselves through. So a good exercise with this in mind would be to find goals that you have either stopped or are still reaching and turn them into systems. Record and test your system to see if you find any changes from when it was a goal.
Surprise moment: Goals and systems are things that I did not expect to read about when reading about failures. I thought that it would be one of those life lessons to learn from failures rather than doing nothing about it due to it being a failure. I expected tips and tricks on what to learn from a failure, but never in a way through goals and systems. I'm not sure whether this would be my go to method of doing things now but I would like to try and find out.
