Being curious, and holding space for learning.

Yesterday's work could have presented a smorgasbord of challenges and frustration. But it didn't.  

Instead of deciding to be frustrated, I choose to remain "curious" and hold space to "learn."  

• I'm curious about how (not "why") something did not work out.

• It's fascinating that "abc" caused "xyz" not to happen. Huh? What do you know about that? 

So, instead of going through the day angry and bothered that things didn't go "my way," I walked away exponentially smarter about the way the world and the people in it work.  

Failure is only failure when you choose not to learn.

Remember, to learn, you need to remain curious.

Try it out today.

Oh, I realize that I chose a cat for the headline image. It has dawned on me what curiosity supposedly did to the proverbial cat. However, in that instance, I believe the “failed” to learn. This cat, the cat in the header photo, has decided to learn - this cat is goin’ places!
