Damn is frustration a good thing.
I’ve met some of the greatest mentors who became the awesome humans they are because they were frustrated with the mentorship (lack thereof) they received.
The most powerful blog posts and books were written by those who were frustrated with the mediocrity they previously held in their hands.
You can tell a good all-addresses email was written by someone who was frustrated because you’ll find a spelling error, but also legitimate actions people can take right after reading.
Frustration doesn’t need to be a downward spiral. It can be fuel for us to be more generous, connect more deeply and make things better – not for ourselves, but for those around us.
