Making Mistakes – Why This Is A GOOD THING In Life

 

Are you always making mistakes? GOOD! This post will show you how making mistakes is exactly what you SHOULD be doing in life.

 

 

Let’s chat about making mistakes in life.

If you are a human then you are going to make mistakes in life.

Some of you will feel like you are making mistakes every day.

Others will feel like you are making only mistakes only some of the time.

In both situations I would say SO WHAT?

 

MAKING MISTAKES

SO WHAT that you made a mistake?

 

What if I told you that making mistakes is the way we are supposed to learn?

How would your life be different if you began to WELCOME MISTAKES into your life?

All of them.

The big mistakes.

The little mistakes.

MAKING MISTAKES

What if you began to say YES to all of the above because you know that this is how you grow and evolve as a human?

 

People often recommend that we learn from our mistakes in life and even though it is such simple advice, it’s the obvious thing for us to do.

I mean, what’s the alternative option?

That you take an action that you know in your gut is the wrong one for you to take and then the next day you take the SAME MISALIGNED ACTION AGAIN?

What would be the point of you doing that?

 

MAKING MISTAKES

Here’s something you need to know about life:

 

Mistakes are normal.

Obstacles, challenges and roadblocks are normal.

Nothing has gone wrong when those things happen to us.

We have a choice in those moments where we get to DECIDE how we show up.

We get to learn.

We get to pivot.

We get to grow.

 

We get to show up HOWEVER THE WAY WE WANT TO SHOW UP AND THEN MOVE ON.

 

But those opportunities only come to us as a result of those perceived mistakes.

They are a GOOD THING because they make you stronger and wiser in life.

I want you to face them head on.

I want you to look them in the eye and say BRING IT ON.

I can learn from you.

I can find the gem hidden inside the rubble today.

And then we take the goodness we can from that potentially not-so-great moment and we move on, with new knowledge, new wisdom, new strength, new courage and a new understanding about life.

MAKING MISTAKES

Consider the following quotes about mistakes:

 

“Learn from the mistakes of others. You can’t live long enough to make them all yourself.” – Eleanor Roosevelt

“You have to make mistakes to find out who you aren’t. You take the action, and the insight follows: You don’t think your way into becoming yourself.” – Anne Lamott

“If you have the guts to keep making mistakes, your wisdom and intelligence leap forward with huge momentum.” – Holly Near

“Anyone who has never made a mistake has never tried anything new.” ― Albert Einstein

“Don’t be ashamed by your mistakes, they only prove that you try hard and never give up.” ― Riley Czarkowski

“When you find your path, you must not be afraid. You need to have sufficient courage to make mistakes. Disappointment, defeat, and despair are the tools God uses to show us the way.” ― Paulo Coelho

“Freedom is not worth having if it does not include the freedom to make mistakes.” ― Mahatma Gandhi

 

MAKING MISTAKES

Allow these quotes to inspire and motivate you to embrace MORE mistakes in life and NOT LESS.

 

Repeat after me:

MISTAKES ARE A GOOD THING.

MISTAKES ARE A GOOD THING.

I MAKE MISTAKES BECAUSE I AM A HUMAN.

AND MISTAKES ARE HOW I LEARN.

As always, much love from me and take care.

Much love,
