Tip # 45. Admitting a Mistake

Uncategorized 1 Minute

Admitting a Mistake.

We all agree that there is no perfect person. Then why is it so hard for most of us to admit making a mistake?

We all agree that we learn from our mistakes. Then why is it so hard for most of us to admit making a mistake?

Tough questions and I wish I had the answers. However, I do know that admitting a mistake makes us a stronger person, not a weaker person. It opens the door to growth for us. If we are able to admit making a mistake, it also teaches our children two big lessons:

1. If my parents admit to making mistakes and the world does not stop, then maybe I should not be afraid to try something new.

2. If I try my hardest and still make a mistake, it is OK. I can learn from this.

Remember Tip # 13

Not only what you say but what you do matters.

There you go. Another thought for today. Now, go and love your son in your own special way. Some days are long but, trust me, the years will just disappear.

Love,

I do have some credentials. I am a college graduate and I did teach both Junior High and High School, albeit briefly.

My best credential is that I am a Mother and Grandmother and I am willing to share...
