What do you have capacity for today? Whether it’s a light lift, or something a little heavier, taking a step is what counts.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t5 minutes\n\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t15 minutes\n\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t30 minutes\n\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t5 minutes\n

Failing Fast<\/h3>

Watch the beginning of this video on failing fast.<\/p>\n

Watch The Video<\/a>

The Science Behind It<\/h4>Video gamers are a unique bunch of problem solvers. Unlike me (I launch into any new game with the sole intent of winning it ASAP), gamers like to lose – at least at first. Many will start a new game by learning how to fail quickly. Then, they start over… again and again. Over time, this allows them to uncover the often-hidden rules of the game that provide its structure. Once the gamer has discovered these rules, they can more quickly master and prevail at the game, knowing its underlying logic. <\/p>\n

The problems we face involve real people with feelings and tempers and maybe a history of grievances. Seeking to fail may add fuel to the fire. Nevertheless, the chances of failing in our attempts to work things out together are decent, so learning to take on a learning frame regarding setbacks is one way to keep hope alive. <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t15 minutes\n

Fun With Failure<\/h3>

Watch and discuss this video<\/a> with your group.<\/p>\n

Watch The Video<\/a>

The Science Behind It<\/h4>Failure gets a bad rap in our society. But virtually anyone who has achieved any form of success – presidents, scientists, athletes, nurses, parents, you name it – did so through the humbling kindness of failure. If you bring a “learning” approach to novel problems rather than a “performance,” you already know this. The only way to learn enough about a complex problem is to fail and to learn as you go. This is a hard truth to accept in American culture, where we usually seek quick fixes. However, it is nevertheless a process that has become quite commonplace today in areas like technology and computing.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t30 minutes\n

Who Are the Short vs. Longer-Term Planners in Your Group?<\/h3>

Ask the members of your in-group to take the Consideration of Future Consequences assessment<\/a> and then discuss the implications of your scores for how each of you tends to problem-solve around complex, dynamic situations.<\/p>\n

Take The Assessment<\/a>

The Science Behind It<\/h4>People differ significantly in the degree to which they think about the longer-term effects of their decisions. Most of us focus on the more immediate, shorter-term results, while others think longer-term. Our research suggests that decision-makers considering far-off outcomes tend to function more effectively in complex, changing environments.<\/p>\n

However, combinations of short- and longer-term planners in groups – when they can constructively negotiate their different preferences – can thrive!<\/p>\n
