Why Making Mistakes Is Good For You

‘When you realize a mistake wasn’t that big of a deal … then it wasn’t that big of a deal.’- Lia Garvin

If we are to grow, making mistakes is the way forward. Mistakes are important. They are important because we are all learners.

Mistakes are important. Because you do not know everything. Remember that the end of one thing is the beginning of another one.

When you start something new, because you have not done it before, your way forward is going to be through making mistakes.

You can’t avoid making mistakes. When you make yours, remember that it is not about you. It is about what you are doing. It has nothing to do with you. But it has everything to do with what you are doing.

If you want to learn, you must accept making a mistake as part of the game. If you want to improve your life, make yourself vulnerable. That is, when you make a mistake, do not make it about you. Because it is not.

How To Create Opportunities For Yourself

Opportunities are everywhere. Wherever you are, do not forget why you are there.

Whatever you are doing, do not forget why you are doing it.

Why? Because when we ask the right questions, they get us thinking.

To me, questions are like stimulants. They get us engaged. They get us excited.

When things are tough, when things are not working according to plan, something is missing. Something is not right.

If we want to know what is holding us back, if we want to know why we are not making progress, we must ask ourselves some thought-provoking questions.

For you, if you are not making progress, do not continue. Stop, then ask yourself, ‘Why am I not making progress?’

Before you go, remember, opportunities are everywhere.
