Know what you know, what you don’t know, and the difference between
these. Self-awareness is critical to successfully navigating challenges.
Build Support
Develop a network of people you trust and who trust you. Don’t be afraid to ask for feedback and support.
Assess Your Situation
Realistically assess the situation you face. Filter noise and rumors
from reliable information. Step back and interrogate reality.
Take Action
Don’t be immobilized by fear. Be resilient in the face of a setback.
Remember you always have options and that hope trumps fear. Look for
opportunities in a crisis or difficult situation and pursue them.
Learn from Everything
Look for learning opportunities even in what may appear as bad news.
Every shadow has a light source. Find it. Learning is the ultimate
benefit from a challenging situation. |
