Some years feel like a champagne tower.
Others feel like a glass-to-the-face sitch. Others kick the door in and knock over the bar cart.
If you’re an event planner Los Angeles pros trust – or anyone building experiences where failure is not an option – you already know this truth: talent is useless without grit.
Listen to Everyday’s A Train Wreck’s episode on “How to Bounce Back in 2026 – Chirag Sagar on Grit, Growth & Getting Up Again”.
The Reset Nobody Talks About
When things feel off, the instinct is to panic-pivot.
>New strategy. New system. New everything.
Surreeeeeee.
That’s not how momentum actually comes back.
Momentum comes from tightening one thing at a time until suddenly… you’re white hot again.
Grit Isn’t a Personality Trait. It’s a Practice.
You don’t “either have it or you don’t.”
You train it by showing up when the celebration is heavy, the clients are intense, and the details feel endless.
Additionally, you stay in the game when walking away would be easier.
This exact conversation came up recently on Every Day’s A Train Wreck – and yes, you should listen to this podcast.
Actually, listen to it a few times.
It hits different every replay.
Why This Matters in the Event World
Events don’t allow for “off seasons.”
There’s no pause button when a vendor flakes or logistics go sideways.
The planners who last aren’t the flashiest.
They’re the ones with grit that doesn’t crack.
If you’re feeling stretched, overwhelmed, or not challenged in the worst way – listen to this podcast.
Then go listen again.
