Turning Your Mistakes Into Stepping Stones For Success
Dr. Terry Paulson stated that it is estimated that we make approximately 300-400 self evaluations a day. Most of us tend to major in self-criticism. For the average person, 80% of their personal dialogue tends to be negative and only 20% positive.
Take a day to focus on this and be aware of this. Make note of your dialogue and self-criticism. Share your experience with this activity.
After identifying a mistake, take time to acknowledge your self-evaluation and ask yourself two questions:
1. What can you do to rectify the problem? If any constructive action (or apology) can fix the problem, then do it.
2. Focus on how you would handle the same situation the next time.
Summarize your experience with this activity and your reactions.
