I'm glad I could be of help. Hi Matt, mistakes are opportunities. Sometimes they are hard to see, but the longer we look the more likely they will show themselves. Hi Positively, no problem.

I look back on older things I have written, or times when I have missed the mark and realize those mistakes are areas for improvement. As you were saying mistakes are often associated with negative emotions, if we re-associate mistakes with improvement we can call up positive emotions. When we see mistakes as a opportunities for positive improvement they become just another part of life and the ongoing development of ourselves. Because that development should be the ultimate goal, we have see every part of the road as necessary, the acclaims and accidents.
