7 Reasons Why Not Making Mistakes Is The Biggest Mistake
1. Mistakes help you discover who you truly are.
With every mistake that we make we discover more and more about
ourselves, about who we are, about our limits, about our capabilities,
about what we can and cannot do. They help us be more compassionate and
more tolerant with ourselves and others.
2. Mistakes teach you valuable life lessons.
By making mistakes you will, in fact, learn valuable life lessons and
you will become a happy learner. There is so much we can all learn from
our mistakes, and the moment we see them as lessons rather than
mistakes, we will no longer have this crazy fear of encountering them
along the journey.
“Mistakes are a part of being human. Appreciate your mistakes for what
they are: precious life lessons that can only be learned the hard way.
Unless it’s a fatal mistake, which, at least, others can learn from.” ~
Al Franken
3. Mistakes teach you how to forgive.
One of the greatest lesson you will learn from making mistakes is
forgiveness. With every mistake that you’ll make, you will learn how
important it is to forgive yourself and many of the people around
you. You will understand that you are not perfect and that perfection
doesn’t really exist, only our intentions of doing our best. And who
wants to be perfect anyway? Perfection leaves no room for improvement.
“The truth is unless you let go, unless you forgive yourself, unless
you forgive the situation, unless you realize that that situation is
over, you cannot move forward.” ~ Steve Maraboli
4. Mistakes help you let go of fear.
NOT MAKING MISTAKES – isn’t that actually
the biggest mistake you could ever make? Life isn’t about avoiding
mistakes but rather embracing the idea that mistakes will come your way
and be willing to learn from these mistakes. Let go of your fears and
allow yourself to really experience life.
5. Mistakes teach you how to live a life without regrets.
Believe it or not, if you play it safe you will have more and more
regrets about the things you did not do rather than the things you did
do, you will regret not making more mistakes. Personally, whenever I
hesitate to do something because of the fear of making mistakes, I
imagine myself on my deathbed ( I know, a bit too crazy but it works
) looking back at my life on what I achieved. By doing so I realize that
if I don’t take action NOW, I will have regrets.
6. Mistakes help you growth and evolve.
If you don’t make mistakes how can you expect to GROW and to EVOLVE
as a human being? How many of us get stuck because they allow the fear
of making mistakes to paralyze them? How can we expect to learn anything
new if we don’t allow ourselves to make mistakes?
7. Mistakes teach you how to be happy.
You gain confidence, courage, and experience every time you make a
new mistake in a very narrow field and in time you will get better and
better at the things you love to do. Remember Thomas Edison? He failed
more than 10,000 times while working on the light bulb and in the end,
he succeeded.
When you know exactly what you want and when you are able to see this
something in your mind’s eye, nothing can stop you from moving forward,
nothing can stop you from achieving your dreams and allowing happiness
to enter into your life.
Believe it or not, you will not make all the mistakes you expect to
make, and when you do make mistakes, the sky will not fall down and the
whole world will not stop from doing whatever it is doing just so it can
laugh at you.
