Mistakes are something we do unintentionally and out of carelessness. Mistakes are the first step to learning things. Mistakes help you be the better version of you. Making a mistake seems to give a chance to ourselves to flourish and learn something new. Every mistake you do teach you something new, makes you responsible, strong headed and prepares you to face the harshness of the world.

You should be brave enough to make mistakes! Sometimes we get scared because of the past experiences. In past the mistakes we made, we regret about them. But have you realized that if you didn’t made that mistake you wouldn’t have learnt about it and even have thought of that aspect.

“The most valuable thing you can make is a MISTAKE- you can’t learn anything from being perfect.”- Adam Osborne

But having to make mistake and not learn from it is something you should really regret about. You should be afraid to repeat the mistake not to make new mistakes. If there are no storms to hit, you will never learn to be strong to face them. Every perfect person once made a mistake.

I wanted my players to be active. I wanted them doing things and initiating. I didn’t want them worrying about mistakes. Mistakes made while expanding boundaries are what I wanted. If we weren’t making mistakes, we weren’t far enough out on the edge. If we weren’t pushing against the walls our capabilities, we weren’t practising properly. The time to cut down on turnovers is during games, not practise.”-In the book How to Be Like Coach Wooden by Pat Williams

Have you ever observed a kid who starts to sit? He never knew how to sit and when he starts he doesn’t perfectly sit but sit with a support or keep falling. He repeated fall make mistake and then only learn how to sit properly and perfectly. Perfection comes from making mistake endless number of times unless you don’t learn to be perfect in it.

In sports when we play don’t we make mistakes? We do and it is named as fouls in gaming term. The more fouls we do the better player we become, but that doesn’t stops us from playing or making mistakes. Does it?

Never be afraid to make mistakes! Make as much as you can but never lose the opportunity to learn from it and accept your mistake. You should be responsible of the mistakes you made.
