Disappointed?

It’s natural for us to base our aims on what we know has worked in the past. But it can also be a problem. The outcome we visualized doesn’t happen; everything has changed, and the context that made things work in the past no longer exists.

In that case, the only thing to do is to recognize it as quickly as possible and move on. Staying in the same place would be a fatal drain on resources.

We need to push through to entirely new possibilities. Most importantly, we will not be able to do that unless the first thing we get rid of is the way of thinking associated with the old, previously successful circumstances.

New opportunity unfolds itself from new ways of thinking.
