Mistakes

Making mistakes is unavoidable. No decent person does it on purpose, but mistakes happen. Mistakes can be something we said or did, or it could be mistaken identity. But the question is, what do we do with it when we make a mistake?

Mistakes are learning tools. We learn what doesn’t work so we try to not make the same mistake again. When learning algebra, you go down a lot of wrong paths but eventually figure it out. This helps to form your mind and actually helps develop critical thinking.

There are those who like to throw out past in our faces, but only to remind us of everything we have done wrong. Those types of people are very small. They are insecure in themselves, so they try to make others feel insecure, too. Stay away from them, even if they are family members. They have their own issues to sort through and you can’t help them.

Keep your eyes on your future, not your mistakes of the past. You learned from them. That’s all. You live in the present moment.

Don’t allow the past to prevent you from trying something new. There’s a lot of life left to live…
