Can you remove the shackles of your past mistakes and move forward?
- When you’ve made an error that gets you down, take out a sheet of paper and write down exactly what happened.
- Assess why you made the mistake. What were the causes? How many of them were within your control?
- Think about the problems or pain created by the error and who might suffer.’
- Apologize and seek forgiveness quickly from people who may have suffered as a result of your mistake.
- If your guilt is consuming you, seek professional guidance.
- Recognize the benefits of the mistake. What good has come out of it? If nothing else, you have learned a valuable lesson for your future behavior.
- Remember that a mistake reflects your performance in a particular situation under a particular set of circumstances. It is not a statement about you. You have the power to change your performance in the future.
