Oops! I’ve made a mistake. Does an awareness of this make you feel like a failure? Do you feel like pointing out that “it’s not your fault”, it was beyond your control? It’s been said that blaming others shows you still have a long way to go in developing as a person, but when blame is not included in the self-talk, you can know you are thinking correctly and are making great progress in your growth. Making mistakes is not failure, refusing to learn from them is. What recent mistakes have you made that you can use to grow stronger?
