Often the hardest one to make is the one right after the miss.
Things were going along so well. The process was good. The mechanics were solid. The machine was humming. Lots of makes.
And then there’s a miss.
Now the questions start. Does the whole system need retooled? Whose fault was this? Are we losing our edge?
So you missed. Did something go wrong? Probably. And if you were all-knowing (or dedicated a lot of time to it) you could pin point it and move forward with confidence knowing you fixed the exact problem that caused the miss.
Or you could remember your makes. Remember you’re good. Remember your foundation is real and take another shot.
It’s hard to get a make after a miss because we get mentally rattled…not because we suddenly got worse at what we’re good at.
