Finding Strengths After Mistakes

A mistake is an action or decision that produced an unintended or unwanted result. Mistakes are not a sign that you are incapable — they are evidence that you are trying. Every person who has ever built a skill, developed a talent, or achieved something meaningful has made mistakes along the way. The question is never whether you will make mistakes but what you do with them afterward.
