Is it wrong?

it is ok to fell badly when we make a mistake. you learn from it and move forward. i know how you feel it is so demeaning but this is how we learn in life. we aren't perfect and never will be but we make mistakes. i had a teacher once when i stated i made a mistake she replied well, that is why we have erasers. i know how you feel, however.

Yeah, we all make mistakes, and honestly, I think we make mistakes more than we make the right things, as a matter of fact. After all, mistakes do not necessarily have to be bad and destructive. For example, the lightbulb was invented by mistake, and I have got my first child after my boyfriend and I had made a small mistake ;) Mistakes can also teach us something and help us grow up or develop. For example, if you look at children who learn to drive a bicycle, what do you see? You see them making so many mistakes, even falling down, but eventually, these mistakes help them understand how the bicycle should be driven at the first place. I think that is a good start for you. Don´t be so hard on yourself. Mistakes are made, you cannot change time and correct them, and it is human to err, as we all know. If you can see your mistakes in another light, that might help you. Maybe some mistakes you have made are really bad, but that is only a small part of your mistakes. Many other mistakes can be useful, if you can look at them in that way. What can you learn from your mistakes, so that in future you can avoid them, or even correct them, so that you can see and do the right thing? These are the questions you have to ask yourself each time you make a mistake and become hard on you. It is like being hungry. You cannot enjoy food if you are not hungry. You cannot find the right way if you don´t make a few mistakes first. That is life. And life is beautiful particularly because mistakes make us people, make us better, smarter, more human, if only we can realize that. Good luck, and once more, don´t be so hard on yourself. Punishment will never help you grow up, but your mistakes will, trust me.

ats--gemelle I do think thats called having a conscience as I too feel bad when I have made an error and its too late to correct it. I think there would be something very wrong with us if we did not feel bad after m aking an error. only those who have no consciences do not feel a bit bad after erring.I do not think you are out of whack I just think you are very normal.

Yeah, it is perfectly normal to experience flasback and to make it an issue. What I think you should do is to learn how to let go. Let go of the mistake, let go of the shame and be positive about it. Take easy on yourself. Sometimes, that is the reason why we make a big deal out of our mistakes because we expect too much. It is ok to expect oursleves to do better and be better everytime but sometimes that is not the case. We also stumble and fall like anybody else. Let us not blame ourselves too much, we can make errors too. Learn from it, laugh it out and move on. It you cant let go yet because you think you can still make it right then do it.
