Morning Motivator – Dealing With Disappointment

"We can get your out on the 7pm flight… tomorrow."
- Continental Airlines

The worlds SHORTEST ski trip happened yesterday.  It lasted about 1 hour and 43 minutes in 80-degree weather… when it was called short by Continental Airlines in Lafayette, LA.  Delayed plane + missed connection + failure to get you out the next day = no ski trip!

DISAPPOINTMENT is a part of life.  Yes, it is CRAPPY; nevertheless, it is a part of the whole experience.

Understanding and being able to OVERCOME disappointment is a key to becoming a very successful person.  Being able to turn a negative vibe into POSITIVE success is a most special skill.  Turning energies that challenge you to STEP your game and FOCUSING them into success that you would not have found otherwise, is a hallmark of the BEST of the BEST!

2 DEGREE SUCCESS STEP:
Learn to accept and CRUSH disappointment!  It is inevitable that you WILL miss out of opportunities, experiences and even finances.

Your ability to REFOCUS yourself and take advantage of the new opportunity and/or situation will ELEVATE you above your competition.  The STORY you share about overcoming disappointment with others will shed new light on you as a professional and as a leader. 

In disappointment, you will have the opportunity to INSPIRE others… through your new successes!!  Turn it into something EPIC and go make your own success!!

Happy Mardi Gras everyone!!

Cheers,
Zach
