5 Life Lessons: #5

By Jeanne

Stay true to yourself. Life has a way of twisting you around. Don’t be afraid to admit your mistakes. It’s okay to fail if you learn from it.

Dealing with failure isn’t something we learn easily. Too many times we think failure isn’t an option. But, that’s true in life and death situations, right? Why do we put that pressure on ourselves? I’m hearing that Pink song in my head… ‘why do I do that, why do I do that, why do I do that?’

I’ve made plenty of mistakes in my life, and it’s taken me a while to understand that my mistakes are what have taught me the most important lessons.

You can’t change the past, so don’t bother to try. You can make better decisions next time, so try that instead. Learn and grow.

While you’re at it, forgive yourself for your mistakes.
