I probably heard this about a thousand times throughout my adolescence and adulthood from my parents. Generally, it followed some disappointing experience that was akin to “look on the bright side” which, we all can agree, is not all that helpful. Over time, though, I came to understand the wisdom and power of recognizing that a loss may not actually be a loss. The loss could be a new job, a promotion, a house, or a raise.

What changed? I came to realize that I had not always put in the work to examine what I wanted (and why it was important) and the impact of getting it. It slowly came into focus that the loss was the best thing that could have happened. This is not the “when one door closes, another opens” advice. Loss provides the opportunity to look inward for clarity and purpose.

Projects funded by the $1.2 trillion infrastructure package must only use iron and steel produced in the U.S., according to a White House memo.
