Took a wrong turn? The GPS doesn’t lecture you. It just recalculates. Treat a bad week the same way.

A correction does not require a verdict first. The useful response to being off course is a new route from where you actually are, and everything spent on establishing how you got here is time not spent moving. Self-criticism feels like accountability and usually functions as delay.

Start from your current position rather than the one you meant to be in. Name the next single action and take it today. Save the review for later, when it can be short and specific instead of a general assessment of your character.
