It’s not only you, external factors also play a role.

It is easy to get caught up in a trap of self-deprecation. But sometimes there is no answer to what you could have done better or differently. It’s less about finding excuses, but to continuously raise your awareness of the surrounding environment. Sure you can do all you can to stay completely dry in the rain, but it will be much easier on a sunny day. Many leaders suffer from depression and guilt from perceived mistakes or not planning for each and every bad scenario. I am still learning that life is full of surprises and it is as much about what I expect of the world, as it is what the world offers and expects of me. The key is to be aware of circumstances, read about what is happening, talk to other people and generally staying connected. To remain centred.
