It is important to take the time to look back on what you have done, what you could have done better, and how to avoid past problems. When we reflect on what we have learned, the failure is not in vain. Continuously improving iis important. Without being able to see where we made a mistake, we are not able to avoid future failures. When you step back and evaluate what went wrong, you are empowering yourself for success. Sometimes we have to reflect over and over again. The key is not to put ourselves down, but to measure how far we have come.
Are there times when you could have improved? Are there times when you did not take the time to reflect on your mistakes, that really hurt you? We can choose to live with the pain of staying the same or change. Being strong enough to face what you have done and correcting it is a true strength. We are not taught that making mistakes is good. We are taught that they are bad. They are only bad when we choose not to learn from past mistakes. Also, the story we tell ourselves about the mistake can hurt us or help us. Take the time to reflect on your past. Your future depends on it. Your families future depends on it.
