Mistakes

What if I told you that there is no such thing as time wasted. Each day, hour, minute, and second was created to shape you into your future self. Yes, it is important what you do with your time but is it necessary to map out all the details? As time goes by we often wonder if a past decision is the result of today’s outlook. If maybe, just maybe we would have done this one thing different would we be in a different place in life? My answer is no. I believe that each moment serves a purpose in molding you into what you are created to be. There is no such thing as a mistake because those so called mistakes tend to shape our character. 

Labeling something as a mistake gives power to that circumstance.  Try looking at that particular situation as a learning experience.  Character isn’t something that develops overnight, but it is definitely something that will enable you to withstand life’s obstacles.  It is important to remember that you aren’t perfect, but you can continue building upon your character by embracing your decisions and the outcomes that may follow.  We may take everyday risks to improve our lives or we may simply make a decision with an outcome we least expected.  Your choices and how you respond to the outcomes will shape your character, so take a moment to reflect on how far you have come and share your story.
