Any time you start something you there will be some curve balls that you have to roll with. Many times this is from things you did not even know to look out for.
I know when I started a new job they had training and that was great but it was not like that on the sales floor. When I was out talking with customers. Or when I was learning how to ride my motorcycle and tipping over a few times.
There are a few things that we can do to help roll with the curve balls.
The first would be to adjust if it is the new normal. Sometimes things have to change. Such as if you have to move for work. Or when someone dies. I can remember when my grandfather died and it was hard for months and to this day I still miss him. Here is an article about someone that had cancer and how their life changed (click here).
Another thing you can do is get to work. Outwork with curve and get ahead. Yes, it is a setback but you are a go-getting and looking to overcome. Otherwise, why would you ever think about doing something on your own? To get different results than the masses you have to do things differently.
Finally, you can get help. Sometimes it is best to ask for help if you are not the best at handling the curve. The answer might be in a coach, advisor, or friend. This would be someone outside what you are doing to look in and help. I talk about this in the post about partnerships (click here). There is nothing weak about getting some help if in the end, it makes you better.
