The Best Way To Handle Mistakes

You can’t avoid making mistakes. When you make mistakes, embrace them as opportunities to learn more about yourself, to learn more about your strengths, to learn more about your weaknesses, and to learn more about the world around you.

When you make mistakes, the best way to manage them, according to Ian Durston, ‘Own up to your mistakes, and forgive others theirs.’

When you make a mistake, instead of blaming other people for your own mess, it pays to just accept it, learn from it, and move on.

The Worst Mistake You Can Make

No one is perfect. If you don’t want to make mistakes, you are not going to grow. You are limiting yourself.

Don’t limit yourself. Do not limit your life. If you do not know what you are doing, ask questions.

If you are stuck in your own rut, ask the right questions. If you want to learn more about anything, ask questions.

The more questions you ask, the more you will learn about yourself. In the words of Ian Durston, ‘Being scared of asking a question, no matter how stupid you think it might be, is the worst mistake you can make.’

Smart people never stop asking questions, whether they are correct or not.

Questions are questions. If you want to know what you don’t know, you must ask questions.

Questions open doors. Questions reveal things. Questions are tools. If you want to get to the other side of life, questions will take you there.
