Ever made a decision that didn’t work out?
You:
✅ Were convinced
✅ Got the buy-in
✅ Moved forward with intent
And still… it didn’t land. It’s easy to say: “I should’ve known better.”
But here’s the reality:
Every decision is made based on what you knew then — not what you know now. What seems wrong today may have been right at the time.
Great leaders don’t regret. They recalibrate. When things go off-course, they:
🔍 Reflect without spiraling
🧩 Understand what changed
🔁 Adjust their next steps
Because:
❌ Regret keeps you stuck in the past
✅ Recalibration keeps you moving forward
Smart teams make space for recalibration. They:
🗂️ Review outcomes without blame
🧪 Treat decisions as learning loops, not life sentences
🔄 Normalise course correction
🤝 Value intent as much as outcomes
And they avoid:
❌ Blame games
❌ Waiting endlessly for the “perfect” option
❌ Shaming bold calls that didn’t work out
So if something didn’t go to plan — don’t regret it.
Recalibrate. Refocus. Restart. That’s how leaders grow.
