Mistakes Help Us Grow

Mistakes Help Us Grow

Embrace Our Humanity

Mistakes are necessary for growth.

I remember my first ski lesson when I was told, if you’re not falling down then you’re not pushing yourself enough, you’re not learning.
Avoiding mistakes can limit our potential.

Risk-aversiveness can stunt growth.

Being harsh on ourselves when we do make mistakes can keep us stuck.

Embracing our humanity, mistakes and all, gives us greater freedom to soar.

Be Mindful

Learn that rushing, reacting and judging derail you from your goals.

  1. How did the experience change you?
  2. Are you wiser, stronger, more aware?
