Coping with Failure
- Individuals using a dual process model of coping with negative emotions or grief recovery can quickly recover from the negative emotions generated by the failure of an entrepreneurial initiative.
- Dual process model requires "oscillating" between two alternate approaches to loss:
- Loss orientation: focuses on the loss event to create an account of the failure.
- Restoration orientation: distracts oneself from thinking about the failure and focuses energy on addressing other problems that have arisen as a result of failure.
