Why Mistakes may be Good?
Perfectionists are scared of
making mistakes. They can do a lot better if they learn to be little forgiving
of themselves. On the other end, lazy people rather lose many things than learn
to overcome them. Mistakes are a part of tough learning in life. It is
important to acknowledge making them in the first place and then, leave them
behind, laugh over them and ultimately learn from them. It is definitely not
fun to make similar mistakes over and over again. It indicates that one is not
learning enough from their own experiences. So if making mistakes is not
bad, then how to handle them is the obvious thought in progress. A simple ABC sequence of events if, followed can really help us to discover
ourselves in light.
1. Apologize, accept, acknowledge and be aware of the mistake. Be
accepting of the mistakes. Everyone makes mistakes. I mean EVERYONE. Otherwise
why would there be so many things
going wrong with our beautiful world
(terrorists, heartbreakers, sweet makers, etc)
2. Behave after you have made a mistake. Behave
gently. Be easy on yourself. Remember people who care for you, would not leave/
disown/abandon you, forever. Immediate reactions to a mistake may sometimes be
sharp depending upon the gravity of the mistake.
3. Correct the mistakes from happening
again. Most importantly one should not give up hope of change. Mistakes can be
corrected by actually taking concrete steps to eliminate them. For instance, if
one is always wearing their heart on the sleeve and getting hurt repeatedly, it
is better to keep the heart in locker for some time. Take your time to plan and
work out your plan. If one plan fails, make another and so on. But nothing
works like spirit. Lose it and you will lose everything. It is this unique
human ability to learn, build up and make up on your mistake that will
make YOU.
Albert Einstein said it best when
he said, “show me a person who has not
made mistakes and I will show you a
person who has not tried.” So chill out and go enjoy your life responsibly. It is ok
to make mistakes. You are still lovable and your loved ones will still forgive
you. Move on with life.
