Through Wrong to Right

There’s an old Indian saying: “Jab sab galat ho raha ho, tab sab sahi ho raha hai.” According to Asha from Snowpiercer, it means: “When everything goes wrong, perhaps it’s setting itself right.”

If you dislocate your shoulder, the medic will warn you before he pops it back in: “This might hurt.” A CEO realizing she took the wrong strategic turn may have to fire an entire department.

It doesn’t always have to get worse before it’ll get better, but when you feel it getting worse without knowing where it’ll lead, have a little faith: The switches might still be adjusting, but there’s a chance the train will soon be back on track.
