Mistake, Has No Master: Handle It Maturely.

   
        A popular wise saying of our elders says "when a child falls he looks forward, but when an old man falls he looks back."Mistake!
       What is a mistake? Mistake means committing an unintentional error.It is never intentional
        Look, take time to ask questions from those who have made it in life, you will be surprised at the silly mistakes they've made in the past.
       So, don't see yourself as a failure just because of that slight mistake. All you have to do is, cool down and act maturely.
        The difference between the child and the old man is MATURITY, the child doesn't bother, infact If he falls there  a 100time he won't look back, all his focus will be on his rough dress and perhaps the wound he sustained through the fall. And he will say " Oophs! again! Damn it! He's not concerned about what made him fall.
        But the old man will look back, check very well what has caused him to fall, if it is removeable, he will remove it,and if not he will just say" ooo! So it's this small thing that caused me to fall" I assure you, unless the man is careless, he will never fall at the spot again. When he falls, he doesn't bother on his wounds or mess the fall has caused, he only goes back to know the cause of the fall.
How do you handle your mistakes?
Mistakes are part of life. Don't allow your mistakes to control you.
        First to do in handling your mistakes is,you accept it is a mistake made by you, don't shift the blame on anyone. Accept the responsibility of the cause before digging to know the source of the mistake.
        Second to do is, Learn from the mistake
        Third, Don't repeat it again. I mean try as much as possible not to repeat the same mistake, hence it becomes an error.
       Remember, no mistakes, no growth, no development, no outstanding success.
The real mistake is the one which you learn nothing.

THE MIRROR: IDENTITY AND SELFHOOD

Identity. It’s the essence of who you are—your personality, the core of your being. Selfhood, on the other hand, is the expression of that identity, the way you present yourself to the world. Think back to a time when you had to show your identity card. Do you remember the reaction of the person you handed it to? Likely, they nodded in approval, having seen all the necessary information about you on that card. Your identity, in that moment, was defined by the details captured on that small piece of plastic. But identity is more than just what's written on a card. It’s how you define yourself and how others perceive you. It’s the name you give yourself, the image you project, and the way people recognize you. Selfhood is often conveyed through three key aspects: - Dressing (Your Appearance) - Actions (What You Do and How You Do It) - Speech (The Words You Speak and How You Utter Them)  Dressing (Your Appearance) There’s a common saying: "Appearance shows the manner."

The Greatest Goal

When the ball enters the net, they say it's a goal! And the loosing team feel defeated forgetting that they've got the greatest goal.  Same to a man who has all his goals lain down and strategically pulling his efforts towards the goal but to realize at the end that, his goals can't be achieved, for known or unknown reasons. He looses strength. At times, he can feel like it's over. But the truth remains that it's not over until it is over. He's got the greatest goal.       Really, a goal is the achievement toward which effort is directed. And billions are the "I want to", "by God's grace I will", "in fact, I must" in the speeches of every man, especially at the beginning of every matter, but strength wanes and the story changes maybe in the middle of the road. Because all efforts put towards the achievement of the goals seem to be less affective. The truth is, no man has control over whatever happens and will happen....
