As Arianna Huffington, the founder of the Huffington Post, said, \u201cWe need to accept that we\u2019ll screw up royally sometimes. Failure is not the opposite of success, it\u2019s part of success.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Failing, making mistakes, or as Huffington so eloquently puts it, \u201croyally screwing up\u201d is actually an imperative part of anyone\u2019s journey. What makes you <\/em>different from others is that you learn from these failures, wield them, and use them to come out better in the end. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today, we\u2019re talking about how to build your character<\/a> through failure and mistakes in your career. That corporate ladder? That promotion you\u2019re after? Your goals for your business? These are all within reach. Keep reading to find how!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Accept that Mistakes Are Gifts<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

When you\u2019re in the throes of workplace drama and tension after making a mistake, it can feel like the world is crashing down around you. You may think to yourself, \u201cThis is it. The <\/em>screw up. My career is about to crash and burn in front of me.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We can assure you that that is not the case. Alright, now, take a deep breath, and reconfigure your mindset. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Something a lot of workplaces get wrong is they teach employees that a single mistake will ruin their career. And you know what? This is exactly the mindset that dramatically suppresses innovation, because you can\u2019t have innovation without leaving space for trial and error.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, the first thing you need to do is accept that mistakes happen and are gifts. This gift has been offered to you. It\u2019s going to help you grow. It\u2019s going to make you rethink your approach. It\u2019s going to teach you a lesson. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWhen You Know Better, You Do Better\u201d<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

These are the words of Maya Angelou. Failures teach us something. They point out a flaw in our plans or product. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

More importantly, she\u2019s saying is that it\u2019s okay to forgive yourself for the mistakes you\u2019ve made in the past. And as you grow from these failures, you learn new things. In fact, you\u2019ll begin to see issues in an entirely new light.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Stop Playing the Blame Game<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Everyone has done this at least once. The blame game. When something goes awry, panic and pointed fingers are often the immediate reaction. But, that\u2019s not how you build your character. It\u2019s important to take responsibility for your mistakes– and not only that, but to be comfortable with them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Shifting the blame, playing the \u201cwho did it\u201d game is the opposite of development. Remind yourself that the faster you acknowledge your failure, the faster you\u2019ll succeed. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Demonstrate Your Resilience<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

You probably don\u2019t know the extent of your strength and the power of your resilience until you\u2019re put on the spot. And equally important, your coworkers and bosses don\u2019t know how resilient you are yet. This is the moment to share with them how powerfully you can bounce back.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You\u2019re not going to build up your resilience by just breezing through life. There is no such thing. No, you need challenges, obstacles, and unfortunately, failures to help build your character. The only way you\u2019re going to find these is through making sense of a mistake. Continuing on after a failure will show you just how capable you truly are.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These are the moments you\u2019re going to reflect back on as the moment you realized how much you can accomplish and just how incredible you are. You\u2019re developing a thicker skin by the moment. The next time you go after something, you\u2019ll have a much better idea of how to get there, because you\u2019ll remember what went wrong last time and how to fix it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Own Up To Your Mistakes<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Failing is an art. But to master this art, you first need to own up to it. Having an idea or a project fail at work and having a manager pointing fingers about who should take the fall sounds like an all too familiar scenario. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Being strong enough to accept accountability is a trait that doesn\u2019t just fall on leaders in the workplace; it\u2019s something every entrepreneur, freelancer, business owner– scratch that, everyone <\/em>should have. Admit when you\u2019re wrong, and exactly what <\/em>you did wrong.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This can be a difficult thing to do. However, once you cross that threshold, you\u2019re showing that you are willing to learn from your mistakes, try new things, and take steps to prevent the same mistake from happening again. This way, you can build your character into one that turns failure into success.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Use It For Motivation<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Be like the Walt Disneys and Michael Jordans of the world. Use your failures as a precious source of motivation. Walt Disney was told he wasn\u2019t \u201ccreative enough\u201d before he went on to found Disney. A 15 year old Michael Jordan wasn\u2019t accepted into his high school basketball team. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

He didn\u2019t quit. Sure, he went home and cried. But that summer he trained hard– trained so hard that he eventually made the team and became, arguably, the greatest basketball player in history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Instead of giving up and letting failure crush you, turn it into a source of motivation. The frustration you feel at not achieving your goal? That\u2019s fuel, powering you to work harder for your next goal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Accept that Failure Isn\u2019t Final<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Having a positive mindset is the ultimate flex when it comes to character building. After experiencing a failure, it\u2019s important to be wise enough to know that this failure isn\u2019t final. The same examples work here too. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

After Walt Disney was rejected for what an incredibly blind newspaper called \u201cnot being creative enough,\u201d he went on to start a company, which also failed. But, he knew that this failure was just a setback, and that it wasn\u2019t permanent. The third time was the charm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Broaden Your Perspective<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

There is a silver lining in making a mistake in your career. Too often, we get so caught up in the pursuit of our career goals that we ignore or forget about other important aspects of our lives. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For example, you can be so focused on putting in enough hours, growing your business, and rising up the ranks that you overwork yourself at the cost of your family, personal life, and even health. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Having character, <\/em>career-wise, involves being strong and savvy enough to balance your personal life and career. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Know That You\u2019re One Step Closer to Success<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

And here we are at the end of the road. When in doubt, lean back on the irrefutable fact that a mistake brings you one step closer to success, not farther away. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Instead of working on something and staying cautious because you\u2019re trying to get the timing right, perfect the product to the point of insanity, and show others that you\u2019re essentially bulletproof, realize that it\u2019s a good thing that this failure occurred when it did– and that it\u2019s actually a blessing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This entire journey is there to allow you to make changes and the improvements you need to grow. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Accept that Not Every Idea is Worth It<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

There is strength in not giving up on a worthy cause, but there is also power in knowing when to stop trying. Realizing that you failed not <\/em>because you didn\u2019t give it your best, but because you put your best in the wrong idea can be relieving. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Everyone wants to follow every idea that pops into their heads. And that\u2019s the great thing about failure. It reminds you that not every idea is a good one. Having character includes learning to filter through these ideas, evaluate them, and decide which ones are fit to act on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the best examples of this is Steve Jobs. Before he became one of the wealthiest people in the world, he had a company in shambles. He took one of the most drastic measures of his life. He realized that in order to earn profit, he needed to stop pursuing so many ideas. So, the dozens of products Apple was working on? They were scrapped.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Instead, he selected a handful of product ideas, the iPhone being his greatest focus, and concentrated on them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

There is this term called \u201cfailing up\u201d or \u201cfailing to success\u201d and it fits perfectly here. The stigma around making mistakes needs a reality check. Mistakes should be acknowledged as an important part of character building. Not only that, but as an essential part of business. How else can we improve ourselves?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
