Something didn’t work.
Our instinct is often to fix it quickly and move on.
But failure contains data.
Don’t hide the failed attempt. Harvest the lesson.
Ask:
What did we expect?
What actually happened?
What did we learn?
What should change next time?
Failure without reflection becomes frustration.
Failure with reflection becomes experience.
And experience intentionally captured becomes organizational knowledge.
Don’t waste a good failure.
