Hindsight is 20/20. Monday morning quarterbacking. It’s easy to look in the rear-view mirror and “know” things were going to turn out like they did.
I share a story during this conversation about doing something “stupid” and breaking something that was important to me. I was SO angry at myself because I know better.

Stewart Wiggins talked about Mike Tyson – you can do lots of planning but once the punches start flying it becomes a problem-solving exercise. It’s not about how you look at it when it happens but how your respond to fix it.
Inga Hebdon added that trying to anticipate all possible problems before they happen can be a spiraling rabbit hole that gets you stuck doing nothing.
I feel like we danced around this topic more than answered. Grace. Learn from it. But letting go of being angry at yourself? I don’t think we came up with a good answer.
How do you let go of a mistake you “should” have seen coming? Or maybe worse, did see coming (like the story I shared) and didn’t stop it?
