As a driven leader in a blue-collar industry, I’m sure you’re no stranger to making mistakes. If you’re at all like me, you’ve made some big mistakes throughout your career. These are not just to be expected, but I’m here to help you remember that they are absolutely necessary for your continued growth and evolution as a driven leader.
You didn’t get in the game of leadership to be an observer. This means you take a lot of action, right? With a lot of action comes a lot of results. As it’s been said, “you win some, you lose some.” However, the more I’ve developed in my career and personal growth, I’ve come to realize that winning and losing is simply a perspective. Mistakes and failures are labels created to define a specific outcome. This is fine until it begins impacting our confidence.
