Making It Right: Correcting the errors

Mistakes happen. We all make them; it is part of what makes us human. How you react and respond to mistakes is something that shows your character. It is natural for many people to promptly beat themselves up over their blunders, fixating on their lack of perfectionism.

But is this truly a great or even healthy way to react to making a mistake?

Rather than looking at mistakes as negative, look at them as chances. What these opportunities are is ultimately up to you, but they are unlimited. They make things right in life.

Understand that:

- Mistakes force you to look at the present moment and identify why you made the mistake.

- Mistakes can also mean a chance for reflection and progress. This reflection can be on yourself-how it makes you feel, what you could do differently, or what you have learned.
