Do Not Be Afraid To Change Your Mind

If things are not working for you, do not get frustrated. Do not beat yourself up. Ask yourself, ‘What is going on? Why am I not getting it right? What am I missing?’ Never ask, ‘Why me?’ That is not good. That is not good for you. Just because you are learning does not mean you are not going to get better.

Just beacuse you are struggling to understand something does not mean you are stupid. Just because you are still trying to know yourself better doesn’t mean you are a weak person. Just because you don’t want to be abused by those who don’t know you, that doesn’t mean you are a bad person. Or that you are a loner. You are not a loner. You love yourself. You don’t want to be abused by people who don’t know what it really means to be alive.

If something is not for you, do not pretend to like it. If you do, you are wasting your time. If you are not comfortable with people, do not pretend to like them. It is okay to say, ‘I love myself more.’ Do not pretend to do anything that you are not proud of. If you do, you are hurting yourself.

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.
