Disappointment is information

Disappointment hurts.

Loss. Failure. Stalling. Injury. Etc.

But when we're over that

What benefits does it hold?


Expectations wrong?

View things differently?

Do something different?

Approach (literally?) from a different angle?


Did we mess up?

What would we try to do different next time?

How do we prep for that? 

How will it work when it matters, again? 


Was something out of our control?

OK to try again like we did last time?

Shall we still come with a plan B? 

C? 


Rather than trying the same thing again

Or changing something

Maybe dismiss, swap, the whole undertaking

"Dis-appoint" it?!


So after the sting

We can see and use disappointment

*For* our development

Make it part of the toolkit
