Tip of the Week

We should learn from the past, including mistakes, poor choices, and triumphs.
I really like this saying. So often we beat ourselves up for our failures yet we need to learn from our mistakes and move on to bigger (in our case, smaller) and better things. This is what Thomas Edison did, after 10,000 failures with the light bulb. Thank goodness he never gave up.

After my day today (recovering from a bad Sunday), I feel refreshed to see that so many mistakes can lead to such a great accomplishment! I can only keep my eye on the goal and push on~

Good for you! How often do we make a mistake and beat ourselves up only to stop doing the good? Keep on going. Your doing a wonderful job.
