I consider myself as a person that likes to be nice and welcoming to everyone I meet. I especially like for others to feel welcome in my home but the only visitors that are not welcome back into my home is the visitor of my past mistakes. You see I’ve learned over the years that our mistakes will continue to visit and revisit us unannounced time and time again until we learn the lessons in them.
Yes my friends, there’s usually a lesson in every mistake and if the lessons not learned, the mistake will continue to ring your doorbell. So I caution you today to not fall victim to allowing the unwanted guest of your past mistakes to return to your doorstep repeatedly. Learn those lessons fast and save yourself from some undue stress and frustration and heartache. Let’s tell those mistakes, “YOU’RE NOT WELCOME HEAR ANYMORE!!! I’VE ALREADY LEARNED MY LESSON!!!” Then slam the door shut and move on to the next one.
I’ve found that an even smarter thing to do is to pick up a CD or good book on a regular basis and learn from some of the mistakes that others have made before us. Experience may be the best teacher but I’d rather learn from someone else’s mistakes and experiences whenever possible.
Let’s learn our lessons fast and continue to make it GREAT
Feel free to learn from some of my mistakes by getting my book:
