Kintsugi is a powerful concept. For all of us and our businesses.
Wikipedia: Kintsugi (“golden joinery”), (“golden repair”), is the Japanese art of repairing broken pottery with gold.
As a philosophy, it treats breakage and repair as part of the history of an object, rather than something to disguise.
It embraces the imperfect. It values the use and wear of an object over time.
Question ❓What if we apply it to businesses or ourselves?
…re-define Failure…think pivot and learning
…Context matters…broken (to be repaired) vs trash (end of life)
…Our mistakes and history can result in “golden scars” or joints that shine ✨
and…an imperfect reality can be more valuable than a perfect dream…
live fear-less and stop worrying about others´ ideas of perfection.
Small scars with a big impact 💥….
