Hey guys, @oghie here.

In life every mistake we make opens new doors of discovery for us, we tend to discover more and more about ourselves, things like, who we are, our weakness, our capabilities and our limits. Mistakes helps us become more patient and tolerant with others and ourselves. 

> “There is a power inside every human against which no earthly force is of the slightest consequence.” ~Neville Goddard

In fact, when we make mistakes we learn more crucial lessons from life, and at the end of the day we become happier with what we've learnt. Nevertheless, there's so much we can learn from life each time we make mistakes, we will never encounter this crazy fear of encountering them along our life journey when we see this mistakes as lessons. 

> Mistakes are a part of being human. Appreciate your mistakes for what they are: precious life lessons that can only be learned the hard way. Unless it’s a fatal mistake, which, at least, others can learn from.”- Al Franken

Above everything i have stated, the greatest lesson well learn from mistake is forgiveness. We tend to learn how important and vital it is to forgive others and those around you when we make mistakes. We'll learn to understand that were not perfect and perfection never exist in anyone. By the way, who even wants to be perfect - we never improve on what were doing when we try to be perfect.
