Mistakes, Jamie Lee Curtis, and You - Wellbeing Wisdom Tiny Bites Podcast
How do you feel about the mistakes you’ve made in your life? If you’re like me and are prone to blushing, thinking about mistakes can bring on that hot red embarrassment as if you’ve just made the mistake again.
Mistakes are uncomfortable because they showcase us as fallible and flawed, but guess what? We are fallible and flawed because we’re human.
An interviewer asked actress Jamie Lee Curtis that question and her answer was brilliant: “Sure, I’ve made mistakes. We all make them – we’re human, after all. The great thing about mistakes is when you take responsibility for them. That’s the goal.”
Mistakes are part of learning, and if learning is good, then mistakes must be good, too. Mistakes can teach us to prepare better and to be compassionate. Mistakes can teach us to swallow hard and be truthful, even when it’s to our own detriment.
Mistakes are powerful – own them and learn from them, because it’s 100% certain that you’ll make them.
