It's OK to Make a Mistake

How do you feel when you make a mistake? Do you feel defeated, dumb, incompetent, shame? It's pretty easy to beat yourself up and to let your negative emotions sideline you, but a mistake is just that. It's only a mistake. A mistake doesn't come from a place of maliciousness nor is it made on purpose. It's a misunderstanding, an omission, an oversight, a simple faux pas. So why beat yourself up? Classic quotes talk about failing your way to success, or failure as a learning opportunity. A mistake is just that. We never learn anything if we don't make mistakes. We can't grow without making mistakes. If you don't make mistakes, I would argue that you're not living life! So let's get on it. Try something new. Go out and make a few mistakes, so that you can go out and make something! You've got this! Peace ❤
