Why disappointment is good?

Some would say in order to be successful in life, they need to go through disappointment in life at the early stage. When was the last time you faced disappointment, maybe from a definite result that did not meet your hopes. It could be any event in your life, from a big setback to a small accident. Perhaps your meeting at work did not go as well as you anticipated. Your new job was not what you expected. Maybe someone you like did not reply to your feelings or suggestions. Maybe your relationship did not work out the way you hope it would.

“One’s best success comes after their greatest disappointments.” – Henry Ward Beecher

How did it feel? Every day, people deal with disappointments, depending on how big the disappointment is and how you chose to deal with it, the feeling of disappointment may drive away after a short while or hang over your life for an extended period of time. If not handled properly, disappointments can lead to depression and eventually apathy.

If you don’t care about something, you would not be feeling disappointed, would you? I doubt you would because the very presence of disappointment suggests that this is something you care about so much that you would feel bad over it. The higher your disappointment, the stronger your passion for this is. Disappointment also indicates an opportunity for progress and growth. If you are disappointed in some result, it means there is actually a positive mistake in your framework of thought which need to be resolved. Whenever you are disappointed, it means you have certain mental impressions about reality which you need to address.
