"Never confuse your mistakes
with your value of as a human being."
St. Frances de Sales
As a human being, we learn through our mistakes. Our largest errors may be the catapult to the next best situation in our lives. We must never give up on our lovely selves, but invest time into creative solutions to our pending barriers.
Our experiences with error is too often associated with our worth. We personally rant at our stupidity or failure to assess the negative, but none of this has anything to do with our personal value. I am thinking of a basketball backboard ... basketballs are propelled towards it repeatedly and whether or not a basket is made, the backboard is still a backboard.
Making an error in decisions does not equate to being a failure. Our energy needs to regroup and negotiate a different approach. We can increase our perspective, expand our resources or start anew. Not one of these scenarios particularly reflect upon our worth. If anything, as we learn through our mistakes, our value increases.
