I will like to learn from others mistake if you can tell me one or many what you have learnt from yours?

Answer 1

When I was younger I misunderstood the meaning of the word love.

A long time ago I thought that love was something that you reserved for some special set of people that you had judged worthy of it.

After a while I got to thinking about what Jesus had said about turning the other cheek and loving our neighbor I put the two together and realized that he had made no exceptions in these statements. It became obvious to me that he intended that we exclude no one from the love that we are supposed to be giving. I started thinking about my idea of love and suddenly realized that I had not been loving anyone at all. I had simply been judging everyone and every thing.

Judging someone worthy of love is not love, it is only judgment. I actually started to cry when I realized this. I saw just how much of my life I had wasted being judgmental, thinking of myself as a Christian, when I was actually doing just the opposite of what Jesus had asked us to do.

I thought about the verse judge not lest ye be judged, and I understood it for the first time.

I realized that I have a lot of catching up to do. So many opportunities were wasted. I now try to apply the love that I have for the world in a universal way like Jesus asks us to do.

If I start to feel afraid and think that I see someone that I should not love because of something I have thought or heard I try to catch my mistake as soon as possible. I tell myself that I have forgot the truth and have fallen for the same old trick that had cost me so many opportunities to be loving in the past. The horror of this realization is often all that is necessary to bring me back to my senses and make me drop the judgmental nonsense I was thinking.

I still have a lot to learn about love, but at least I’m making progress.

One mistake was not realizing the importance of a good education when I was younger. That mistake has been corrected.
Another was failing to realize that no matter how much you want to help someone, they must want to help themselves.
Appreciate your parents while they are here, when they are gone it's to late.
Don't allow others to dictate how you live your life. What job you have , where you live and so forth. These are decisions that only you should make. It's the first step to maturity and happiness.
To be successful in life you must have three things;
Pupose.
Meaning.
Fulfillment.

Answer 3

I have often met people who were stangers to me,
and kept staring at me. Many would say something rude to the person. I am more contained.
And have been able to see that this look of recognition means I will have some dealing with the person at a later time. So it's best to hold our tongue, or we might find an enemy when we meet
them again.
Also, I often see a look of fear in a persons eyes I am getting to know. I now see this as a sign that I
will have a confrontation with this person at some point.

Answer 5

I think really, that is the only way you can learn anything. By making mistakes.
When you are young, you never want to listen to your parents. They are only trying to keep you from getting hurt, because they have already experienced that hurt. But being a kid, you think they are dumb, and you do it anyhow. That's how you learn. But making your own mistakes.

Answer 6

I used to undertake some tasks in urgency and learnt later that it was foolish to have acted in that manner. Impulses played bigger role in major part of my life for which I have regretted later. I used to utter angry words with my close relations earlier in life, and now I regret having uttered such words wounding their feeling and self respect. I used to consider my views as correct in younger days and used to look down others. In retrospective now I realize that others have equal right in expressing their opinions as I used to do. These are the major follies I have committed earlier in life for which I repent even now. nagarajan.

Answer 8

I walked away from my Lord, that was a big mistake. Luckily He did not give up on me like I gave up on Him, and I found my way back to His loving arms. : )

Answer 9

Be very, very wary of anything that says 'Easy to Do!"

Edit: while you're at it, don't do anything because you think it will be easy. Do because you want to do it, and never mind the ease or difficulty.

Answer 10

If there is no mistake, you cannot correct it. If you cannot correct, you cannoot improve.
