Learn From Your MISTAKES

In life, there are some things we would always do (intentionally or not), one of them is Making Mistakes. In this life, we would make mistakes. But life doesn’t stop there, not at all, what do you do when you makes mistakes? Do you learn from it or you just keep making more?

The past is our tutor, the present is the life exams, the future is the result of our life examinations. Some mistakes can be very costly and derailing which is why we need to learn our lessons. Recently I learnt a very hard lesson about some mistake I did and at first I was really down and could easily slip into depression but then I realized if I ever want to emerge a better man, I got to own up to my mistakes, learn from it and improved.

You certainly can’t avoid mistakes but you can avoid making the same mistakes, you can avoid making costly mistakes, you can avoid certain mistakes certain people have made in the past.

Learn from your Past and learn from People who have gone ahead of you. You don’t need to overspend before you know that it kills, you have heard and seen people who have been killed in accident caused by over speeding, so you learn from them.

So, if you have made some mistakes before, you ain’t alone and don’t be downcast about it. Admit your mistakes, repent and make amendments. We all have that second chance, the thing is not to blow it up again. People that don’t learn from that mistakes will always end up in miserable situations.

As Eleanor Roosevelt rightly said “Learn from the mistakes of others. You can't live long enough to make them all yourself.” - Eleanor Roosevelt. “Everyone makes mistakes. ... Nikki Giovanni said “Mistakes are a fact of life. It is the response to error that counts.”

So what is your reaction or response to that mistakes, because that is what will determine your progress.

It’s the second month of the year already, so far so good, hope you are learning from your mistakes. Don’t be hard on yourself, don’t give up. Don’t remain fallen, rise up and emerge wiser, stronger and better.
