Learn from your mistakes...

Hello Everyone,

Welcome again to another session of Learning.

Today's Topic: Learning from Mistakes

The only man who never makes a mistake is the man who never does anything. – Theodore Roosevelt

Making a "mistake" is not the same thing as "failing." A failure is the result of the wrong action, whereas a mistake usually is the wrong action. So, when you make a mistake, you can learn from it and fix it, whereas you can only learn from a failure.

On the surface, some mistakes might seem like the end of the world, however, below the surface they present you with the perfect opportunity to learn, to grow, and to improve yourself.

Here are 5 valuable lessons each MISTAKE teaches us:

1. Mistakes teach us to clarify what we really want and how we want to live.

2. Mistakes teach us to be more accountable and responsible.

3. Mistakes teach us, through analysis and feedback, about what works, and what doesn't.

4. Mistakes teach us who are our best friends and who really care for us.

5. Mistakes allow us to train and inspire others through our learnings.

Our mistakes and failures are gifts, gems, and guideposts in our learning and individual growth. So embrace failures, mistakes, screw-ups, and shortcomings because they not only make us uniquely who we are but also teach us powerful life lessons that no university and no educational institution can ever teach.

I hope you have learned something good today. Practice it to be successful in your life.

Have a great week ahead.

Regards,

Vincent Baasa
