why are we so afraid of mistakes?
they’re valuable steps that help us grow, push us forward, and lead to mastery

instead of “I messed up” try “wow! now I know what doesn’t work and I can do it differently”

the world changes when mistakes spark curiosity instead of stopping you✨

i’m leading a course on self-criticism, and one session is about self-compassion: learning to treat yourself like a friend

saying: “i see how hard this is, you’re tired, you’ve done so much—let me be here for you” isn’t easy

but it’s a skill you can learn. with small, gentle steps ⤵︎

we often think happiness is somewhere in the future, in big things: achievements, dreams, life without worries

but it’s not there

it’s in small things: sunlight, kind word, morning coffee, hugs

and it’s not beyond the finish line
it’s along the way
