📶 No matter how strategic we are, life’s like a game where we don’t get a chance to undo our moves. But here’s the real insight: we always have the power to play the next move better.

Here are 3 lessons I’ve learned through my leadership journey that remind me why focusing on the next step is key:

✅ 1. Accept mistakes, but don’t dwell on them. Leaders often face unexpected setbacks. The mistake isn’t the problem; it’s staying stuck in regret. Accepting that we can’t go back is liberating.

✅2. Shift quickly from analysis to action. Reflecting on what went wrong is valuable, but overanalysing leads to paralysis. Take the lesson, adjust, and move forward. Each decision is a building block for the next.

✅3. Adapt your strategy, but don’t lose your vision. One wrong move shouldn’t shake your overall goal. Adjust your approach while staying true to your purpose and direction.

This leads to an essential question: How do you avoid being weighed down by what you can’t change?

⁉️The answer lies in seeing each decision as part of a larger journey. Even after a misstep, you can always set yourself up for a stronger move next time. – Ali Aydan
