How to look at disappointments constructively?
Success isn't permanent, and failure isn't fatal.It is possible to fail in many ways...while to succeed is possible only in one way.You may be disappointed if you fail, but you are doomed if you don't try.Don't be disappointed by a failure. It can be a positive experience. Failure is, in a sense, the highway to success, inasmuch as every discovery of what is false leads us to seek earnestly after what is true, and every fresh experience points out some form of error which we shall afterwards carefully avoid.You always pass failure on the way to success.A minute's success pays the failure of years.Success is the ability to go from one failure to another with no loss of enthusiasm.Disappointment When you suffer a disappointment, it hurts. It hurts enough that it can powerfully motivate you to find a better way. Whenever something doesn't live up to your expectations, you can choose to become angry, resentful, frustrated or discouraged.
Or, you can set out to make it better. Disappointment is a thorough, effective and highly personalized teacher. The powerful lessons learned in the midst of disappointment can stay with you always. Once you've experienced a disappointment, you're already past the hard part. And you're in a position to turn that disappointment into something valuable.
You've paid the price. So step forward and reap the reward. In disappointment there are the seeds for real improvement, for real progress. Nurture those seeds with newfound strength, and transform disappointment into resounding success..

I was having coffee with a director friend of mine and we were talking about how business was going.
He has been very busy with a good stream of projects coming his way.
I told him that things were a little slow for me but I was using that time to try some new ideas to spread the news about my speaking business.
To that he responded, "Oh, so you're just planting seeds right now." "Yes," I said, "I'm planting seeds."
That assessment of my current pursuit really stuck with me after we left.
I had been harvesting a lot in recent months while I was taking full advantage of work that had come my way.
But once things slow down, we all can forget that our "crops" need to be replanted in order to reap another great harvest.
In the acting world, it typically gets slow from late April until after the fourth of July due to most TV production being on hiatus, which was the time period...
