So, I made a mistake.
Mistakes happen. Not only do they happen, they are guaranteed.
My father used to say, the only way you won't make mistakes is if you don't do anything, and that itself is a mistake.
To many are afraid to try something new because they feel they might make an error. They are both right and wrong. Yes, they will probably make errors but it is good to understand that errors go with the territory.
You will never accomplish great or worthwhile things without risk and risk generally means great mistake potential.
You are probably reading this by light bulbs invented by Thomas Edison. He made over a thousand light bulbs that didn't work. The world would have called them mistakes. He said he learned a thousand ways not to make a light bulb.
The way to avoid mistakes is experience. The way to get experience ?Mistakes.
Don't feel bad because you messed up with something. Don't be afraid to venture out into a good thing because you are afraid that you might mess up.
While one person hesitates because he feels inferior, another is busy making mistakes and becoming superior. Henry C. Link
An expert is a man who has made all the mistakes which can be made, in a narrow field. Niels Bohr (1885-1962)
We have to keep trying things we're not sure we can pull off. If we just do the things we know we can do... you don't grow as much. You gotta take those chances on making those big mistakes. Cybill Shepherd
