Learn from Trial and Error
The greatest teacher in the world is known as: "Trial and error." This has given more people more wisdom than any other teacher possibly could. "There is no greater wise person than someone with experience."
What does it mean to have experience? It means that one has learned from trial and error. If everyone would get it right the first time, experience would not be needed.
Having the courage to try -- even though you might make a mistake -- enables you to learn from trial and error. This is a valuable reframe or learning experience.
Instead of becoming overly frustrated or discouraged when you make a mistake, realize that you are now becoming wiser, and this is all part of the process.
Every time you work with someone new or take a new project, there are no guarantees that the new project will be like the last one. By knowing you will have learning experiences in advance, you will have the confidence to move forward.

Channah looked at Sally, shocked, and protested, "Your husband is 5 foot 8 inches, overweight, bald, has a temper, and is mean to your children."
Sally replied, "You think I want HIM back?
