TURNING FAILURE INTO SUCCESS

Failure can be a hard pill to swallow – after all, no one wants to experience difficulty or disappointment. But as long as you’re resilient and determined, failure can actually serve as an amazing springboard for success.

For starters, failure can force you to see things in a fresh light. The next time you take on a task or endeavor, you’re not starting from square one, but rather from an enriched understanding of the gap between where you want to be and where you’ve been.

In fact, that same understanding is also essential when it comes to improving upon that first attempt. Always look ahead to what new skills, strategies and tactics you can try to help you move past a similar roadblock should it come up again.

Failure can also help up build emotional resilience. By experiencing and (hopefully) overcoming failure, we can have greater mental strength and greater self confidence.

Along the same vein, failure introduces us to self-compassion and humility. NO one likes to fail – but understanding that failure is inevitable, can help us develop the courage to accept what’s happened and move on.

Failure also helps keeps our eyes on the prize. ... It’s easy to get distracted when approaching a task – after all, if you’re not with the end goal in mid, it’s hard to stay focused. The possibility for failure can help us remember our objective and limit our distractions.

Overall, failure can actually be seen as a stepping stone towards success – as a way to develop skills, resilience and focus. However, it’s important to remember that failure isn’t necessarily a sign of weakness, but of strength – and that is a lesson that can pay off down the road.

I just finished up my first year as a front desk associate at a small hotel. Working as a front desk associate has been a very rewarding experience.

Since beginning my position as front desk associate, I have learned and developed many skills such as customer service, money handling, problem-solving, organization, multi-tasking, time management and communication. Im now able to greet guests with a friendly smile and answer any questions they might have about the hotel, services and amenities.

In my first year, I successfully overcame many challenges. I handled an unexpectedly large number of guests during peak season with ease by ensuring each customer was taken care of in a timely manner. I created a system that ensures accurate records of guests checking-in and out of the hotel. I have also become skilled at using the software systems used to book and store guest information.

I was also able to improve the customer experience by creating a more organized and efficient check-in and check-out process. By creating streamlined procedures, efficiently balancing bookings and accommodating last-minute guests, I was able to optimize check-in and check-out times.

I have also used my excellent customer service and communication skills to ensure customers feel welcome in the hotel. I often take the extra step to make sure my guests are happy and satisfied with their stay.

Overall, I am proud of my achievements in my first year as a front desk associate. I believe I have made important contributions to the hotel and am confident in providing top-notch customer service to guests. I look forward to continuing to grow and expand my skillset in the hotel industry.
