Mistakes are worthwhile if you learn from it

August 14, 2018 11:55pm CST
Mistakes are part of human lives. A life spent making mistakes is not only honorable but also useful than a life spent doing nothing. We must be big enough to admit them, smart enough to profit from them and strong enough to correct them. Mistakes are portals of discovery, a stepping stone to our dreams. Everything in life has its own purpose of existence, there's no mistake nor coincidence. Remember that all events in our lives are blessings in disguise brought for us to learn from them. Mistakes are only mistakes if you don't learn from them. We should appreciate them for they have their own reason and that is the most precious life's lesson that can only be learned once you decided to take the hard ways. What was the biggest yet the most promising mistake you've ever committed in your life? How did you overcome it? What did you learn from it? Photo credit: theiltscoach.com

I can't think of an answer to your questions. Maybe that means I haven't learned yet. :P Hahaha. In any case, very good sentiments. Mistakes are a part of our lives. We can learn from them. Experience, they say, is the best teacher. Also... "bad luck, good luck, who knows?" That means, whatever happens to us, good or bad, could lead to something. So maybe you made a mistake, but because you made that mistake, your life went down a certain path that led to something good. So... who's to say it was a mistake? Maybe it was a good thing, after all.

Indeed. Who knows whether a mistake is a total mess? It might be a blessing in disguise after all. Besides, it's a part of our lives. We cannot hide from them. Rather, face them. What's the matter when you commit mistake at the first try? That's why we take risk and try despite the uncertainty. What's important is we admit our mistake and we learn from them.

@Talking_dzeym Yes. And everything in our past, mistake or not, brought us to where we are now. It's a part of us. It makes us who we are, for better or worse (hopefully, more for the better ).

@moirai Yeah, truest! Because everything that had happened and probably will be happening to us is part of God's good plan for ourselves which is in truth, better than our plans for ourselves.

I think everyone will make a lot of mistakes. Say something wrong, do something wrong, etc. I haven't made any big mistakes. They are all small ones.

Yeah. That's very true. We always commit lots of mistakes everyday. That's okay. As long as you're not hurting anyone.
