Self-regulation includes what happens after you lose it.
Everyone has bad moments. The question is whether the bad moment becomes a pattern, a private excuse, or a repair point.
Fast repair reduces residue. Name the miss without drama, clean up the immediate cost, and change the condition that made the leak likely. A reset that changes nothing is a pause between repeats.
Operator artifact: reset note: what leaked, who absorbed it, immediate cleanup, condition to change, replacement move next time.
Field test: Reset quickly: name the miss, reduce the residue, and change one condition.
This is part 8 of 10 in Self-Regulation for Operators.
