MISTAKE


                                                   MISTAKES
          Nobody willingly commits mistakes; mistakes are just the wrong decisions that are taken in haste. It is a fact that every human being commits mistakes. "I never make mistakes." Keeping this thought in mind is also a mistake.
          A mistake is never big or small. A mistake is a mistake. Thinking of it big or small  is just one's satisfaction.
          We always try to find fault with others but we should never forget that in the huge world no one is perfect. Therefore, before lookings for faults in others we should first try to find them in ourself because looking for faults in others before looking for them in you is also a mistake.
          The best teachers in this world are our mistake. Therefore, we should always learn from them and try not to repeat them. No tea
Cheer can teach you the practical principle of life, which you can learn from your own mistakes. The only thing most of us try to learn from our mistakes is how to blame others for it. It is said that ''A guilty mind always suspects others.'' By putting the blame of your mistakes on others, you are trying to cover up your mistakes, which is also a mistake. Therefore, the best thing is to admit the mistake because a person's character is always judged by books he read, the company he keeps and the mistake he admits.
          ''There is no greater courage than that of recognizing one's own mistake.''
          Many people are afraid of the punishment and so they do not admit to having made the mistake. They just ignore it.
          We can do three things with our mistakes;
·       Refuse to admit them
·       Ignore them
·       Admit and learn from them
          In admitting your mistake, you need to be very brave and courageous. It is really risky but rewarding. Wise people learn from their mistakes while wiser people learn from other people's mistakes. Our life is not long enough for us to learn from our mistakes.
          Remember, as you sow so shall you reap. If you have committed a mistake then you will definitely have to pay for it. Therefore, it is better to admit the mistake and at least satisfy yourself by improving upon it.
          A famous pianist once said that if he played all the notes correctly then nobody would notice him, but if he played just one note incorrectly, then every single person would notice him.
This is human nature. A mistake seems to attract the attention of all, more than the dozens of things that go on smoothly.
          Many people just ruin their day by brooding and being disappointed over their mistakes. They forget the many things that went wrong. They don't look at themselves in a positive way and the ego in them always keeps pinching them over their imperfection.
          Once we realize and learn from our mistakes then we can do ourselves a favor by putting them out of our mind and concentrating on what went well. This would be a simple and gentle way to face ourselves and end our day with peace and lots of confidence for the coming bright new day.
''The sages do not consider that making no mistake is a blessing, they believe, rather, that the great virtue of man lies in his ability to correct his mistakes and continually to make a new man of himself.''   -Wang yang Ming.
