#WinningWednesday


This #WinningWednesday I would like to talk about mistakes. Life winners make mistakes and learn from them. Too often we tend to consider mistakes as a negative thing, but in reality they are one of the best ways to learn, grow, and win.

Some of the people that have been the most successful at life are actually fans of making mistakes because they have recognized the lessons learned from those mistakes helped them succeed. Tallulah Bankhead, an actress, said this about mistakes, "If I had to live my life again, I’d make the same mistakes, only sooner." She makes an important point about mistakes, outside of the fact that they were important to her success. We tend to run from mistakes, shift their fallout away from us, avoid them at all costs, delay their impact on us but if we would just allow them to happen and come our way we could benefit from their lessons much sooner. So don't be afraid to make mistakes, and if you don't believe me then read this article.
