Every Mistake Holds A Lesson

Are you afraid of making mistakes?

Nobody likes to make mistakes. Mistakes can make us feel bad or unhappy.

But mistakes help us. Mistakes are like teachers—they show us what to do better next time.

Mistakes are necessary for learning. When we make a mistake, we learn something new. We understand what didn’t work—and next time, we do it better.

Think about learning English. Maybe you said something wrong or felt shy. That's okay! Next time, you'll remember your mistake and speak better.

Every time you make an error, you grow.

💡💡

Famous people also make mistakes. Walt Disney lost his first job. People told him he wasn't good at drawing. Did he stop? No. He learned from it and tried again. Today, billions of people watch Disney movies.

Another example is Thomas Edison. He invented the light bulb. Edison tried more than 1,000 times before he succeeded. He said, "I have not failed. I've just found 1,000 ways that don't work." Edison knew that every mistake taught him something new.

When you make a mistake, don’t get angry or sad. Take a moment. Ask yourself, "What can I learn from this?" Then try again.

Don't fear mistakes. Learn from them. Mistakes help you grow stronger, and smarter.

“Failure is simply the opportunity to begin again, this time more intelligently.”— Henry Ford
