The privilege of making mistakes, mind

Mid Life Celebration book
Wisdom comes from experience. Experience comes from making mistakes.

Is it a human privilege to make mistakes?

i think it is.

The privilege of making mistakes is only for people who act.

Why?

Intentional action leads to outcomes.

Outcomes lead to learning.

Learning leads to growth.

Growth is the essence of life.

Mental growth.

Physical growth.

Spiritual growth.

Growth at work.

Growth at home.

Unintentional inaction (which is an action), also produces unintentional outcomes. Not flossing contributes to poorer oral health than intentional flossing.

Taking risks, challenging societal, personal, and industry norms, these are the building blocks for progress, improvement, and sometimes, breakthroughs.

Note: There are exceptions to literally everything, yet i’d offer that no breakthrough has ever happened from avoiding risks.
