Giving advice to people is incredibly difficult.

First, every situation is entirely different because every person is different. Even when the problems are exactly the same.

For example, if a person asks “how do I make more money?” well the advice given to a 19-year-old woman living in Manhattan is going to be different than the counsel given to a 50-year-old man in Arkansas.

But this piece of advice on handling defeats and setbacks, handed out by former Navy Seal and all-around badass Jocko Willink, works for everyone.

A person’s age, race, income level, or education make no difference.

This is the best advice Jocko Willink on dealing with defeat – and it’s only one word.

 

“When things are going bad, don’t get all bummed out, don’t get startled, don’t get frustrated. No. You just look at the issue, and you say ‘good.'”

Try it when something goes wrong today.
