Mistakes

Ellen says: How many mistakes did you make this week? A full life requires thousand of mistakes if you plan to live up to your creative potential.

When we are children, adult try to talk us out of making mistakes and we get confused. They are referring to a life threatening mistakes . but we think they mean everything.

Check how often you are to mistakes. Can you stand it? Can you laugh? Do you shy away from things you might not do well? Do you laugh at people who seem clumsy or naive? Do you grit you teeth when someone you love makes a mistake? Are you under the illusion that everyone is watching you and keeping score.

Start counting your mistakes on a daily basis and try to increase them by ten percent. That will require you to stretch and grow. Try mentioning other people's mistAKES. take risk: be tolerant of yourself and others.

Congratulate others on the risk they take, admire to their courage. You'll have more pleasure and be much closer to what you want to be. Mistakes are the dues of a good and full life. Stretch and enjoy.
