What You Can’t Forget to Do After You Learn from Failure
Learning from failure can and does lead to success. But not always. Learning from failure can only take you so far. If you keep failing different ways, it’s still failure. Yes, knowing what not to do is valuable, but never forget it’s more valuable to know what to do.
So, even after you learn from failure, you still must achieve some type of minor success before you will ever get close to your ultimate success destination. In fact, learning from success is actually more valuable than learning from failure. Research from the University of Chicago Booth School of Business strongly supports this.
Subsequently, experiencing success is the most important step after you learn from failure. The size of a successful step doesn’t necessarily matter, as success compounds. What matters is your ability to replicate the process used to achieve a successful step.
Therefore, the next time you face a failure that you must learn from focus on this. Learn something that you can immediately replicate successfully. Then, go get real world experience doing that successfully to prove that you actually learned the lesson.
