It’s okay to make mistakes
Life is full of mistakes, and making them is essential for personal growth and development. In a society where perfection is orchestrated, one forgets that erring in itself can be a benefit. Forgiveness of your errors allows you to learn valuable lessons, make you stronger, and gain insights that give a sense of success later on.
And to some extent, you step outside your comfort zone when committing mistakes and it is right there, in that sphere, that actual growth exists. There is no victory without the loss of lessons learned: resilience is just that, something to be grasped on the road to long-term success. Each mistake brought to one gives a choice to learn from it. Instead of being afraid to fail, it should always be treated as a door to learning about oneself and self-improvement.
Acceptance that mistakes are acceptable can alleviate stress and anxiety. A much healthier mindset is certainly better than a rigid mindset. A mindset such as this one can actually increase the possibility of improving one’s decision-making while increasing their ability to deal with challenges. After all, every successful person has failed on his or her path to success. The key is not to avoid failure, but rather learn how to recover from it.
Ultimately, making mistakes to learn encourages one to build confidence and become more aware of himself or herself. You realize that mistakes are permissible, which gives one room to experiment and take greater risks, bringing about deeper growth.
