Thinking Space

In last couple of days, this came out in discussion with my kids, whether my son playing a game of chess and making two consecutive mistakes or my daughter solving a maths problem and continue to making a second level error after failing to recognise the first. While this is quite common for kids to get into a downward spiral, on reflection, I realised, as an adult we are much more prone to this tendency. It would be in the form of defending a bad decision in our daily work, failing short of one personal goal and not trying to achieve the next goal or start falling short of your best self after a bad outcome at work.

While sometime you enjoy negative emotions out of anger and frustration, but, in long term these make more harm than good.

Always be conscious of downward spiral !!!
