When something doesn’t work, I choose to see this as an opportunity rather than failure. Here is how you can rewire your brain to create the breakthroughs that you need to overcome these failures.

Things in life don’t always work out the way that you want them to. Sometimes it’s small snags or setbacks. In other cases disaster can strike – such as the COVID pandemic – and can put you into a state of feeling trapped, lost, and scared. While any level of failure or problems we run into will sting, it’s important for you to seek opportunity during those moments and times. This is something that I constantly do by reminding myself:

If you know your values and priorities in life, you’ll have a clear idea of what you want to achieve. So try as much as possible to know your priorities.Put your values and priorities on paper. Once you know your opportunity, it’s a matter of setting long-term goals with smaller short-term goals that you can work on from month to month.

Plan Your Progress

When a problem presents itself, it’s easy for all of our attention to be focused on that. Rewire your thinking by doing these:<ul><li>Gain new perspective: Before you can accept new challenges, it's important to shift your current limitations. Because limitations are what define your current life.</li><li>Identify your challenges: There are new paths that you need to face in order to walk down a new path. There are many ways to achieve the same thing in this world.</li></ul>

Find the Opportunity 

Next, ensure that you’re putting your time and energy into the plans and goals that’ll shape your new reality. Focus on what you do each moment and make it all count. Creating deadlines can also ensure you know what to prioritize.

Invest and Prioritize

Even if things don’t go as you originally planned it doesn’t mean it’s over. I believe that there is no specific way for us to be completely stuck in our lives. There is always something that you can do to change. With this strategy, I encourage you to not let your life pass you by or to give up when problems present themselves. We are capable of great things if we set our minds to it.

It's going to be Okay

Even with all of this progress, it won’t work unless you have good motivational sources and positive habits. Things like goal setting, daily reflections, perseverance, amongst others are key.&nbsp;Also, having clear and personal reasons for doing something creates a solid foundation to start a habit.&nbsp;

Use Motivation and Good Habits
