Keith Craft: Attitude is the prerequisite for all true success.

The thought behind the quote

There is a strategy in psychology called cognitive reappraisal. Instead of viewing a setback as a failure, cognitive reappraisal helps us see it as a valuable learning experience. For example, imagine losing a job. Instead of seeing it as a dead end, cognitive reappraisal allows you to view it as an opportunity to pursue a new career path, learn new skills, or find a role that better suits your best and highest use. To practice it, take a step back when faced with a negative situation, identify your initial emotional reaction, and then practice choosing to reinterpret it in a more constructive way. To practice reinterpreting events, you could journal about the positives that might come from the situation, talk through it with a coach who can help you see different perspectives, or remind yourself of past challenges you've overcome.
