Being critical is easy. It’s especially easy to be critical of yourself. In our personal lives and in the life of an organization we spend a lot of time focusing on what isn’t working. As an engineer I love a good problem to solve.
I think, however, that now more than ever we need to focus on what is working. Once you figure that out, go do more of it. You might find that some of those things that needed fixing don’t matter as much anymore or have even become completely irrelevant.
