Disappointment vs Discouragement · UNMASKED with Wesley Farnsworth

• 0:00
  I draw a distinction between disappointment and
• 0:03
  discouragement. So I tried out something and I
• 0:06
  didn't succeed. I can be disappointed or I can
• 0:09
  be discouraged. Failure.
• 0:11
  Disappointment sits between failure and discouragement.
• 0:15
  Disappointment means I didn't make it.
• 0:17
  I didn't get the grade I wanted. But you know what?
• 0:20
  I'm going to try harder. And next time I'm going to, I'm
• 0:22
  going to beat this thing. I'm disappointed.
• 0:23
  I'm sad that I didn't make it, but I'm going to try harder.
• 0:26
  I'm going to. I'm going to watch me.
• 0:28
  I'm going to do it. That's disappointment.
• 0:30
  Discouragement is I failed. I might as well walk away.
• 0:33
  I might as well give up. I didn't think I could do it
• 0:35
  anyway. You know, somebody warned me and
• 0:37
  told me not to try. And it's just a negative
• 0:40
  narrative we're telling ourselves.
• 0:41
  Discouragement packs it in. Give it up.
• 0:44
  Disappointment is I realized that I didn't make it, but I'm
• 0:47
  coming back. I'm coming back for you.
