“To be wrong is nothing unless you continue to remember it”.
~ Confucius
Mistakes and problems only hurt us, if we don’t learn from them and then release them. For the value of any challenge is the wisdom that we can gain from it.
Have you noticed how people … present company excluded of course … tend to learn more from their failures than from their successes?
This is because, most of us tend to think more about the mistakes. But why not think more about our successes instead? It certainly feels better, and as we focus more on the positive outcomes, we’re aligning with even more success, because what we focus upon expands in our experience.
Yet we shouldn’t discount any “adventure”. The secret is not to hang onto the perceived missteps too long. If we do, they can keep us from moving forward.
So in order to grow, we must also be prepared to fail. That doesn’t mean that we anticipate the possibility of failure. It simply means that there is value in every experience. A sense of humor also comes in handy if we encounter an occasional faux pas or snafu along the way!
Mistakes are merely stepping stones, and aren’t a reflection of your potential, or worthiness. For no one is better prepared, or more worthy to receive your dreams, than you are!
So like a prized fish that you catch and release, learn from the oversights, maybe even appreciate a little chuckle, then release the mistake. Embrace the opportunity to learn, but don’t let a little blooper keep you from achieving your greatest goals and dreams!
If you’d like to explore more, consider these three questions.
–> What have you learned recently?
–> How could you apply your newfound wisdom to a current situation?
–> What are you ready to release?
Move forward in celebration of the successes and the wisdom from every experience. Expect the best, and know that you are far wiser, and better prepared for the next part of your journey. Ssssnappp!
