Ooops! My mistakes...learn from them!

Everyone makes at least one mistake durring the life...because "nobody is perfect".
I could also quote a latin saying "errare humanum est", which means "mistaking is human".

That doesn't mean that we shouldn't want to achieve the perfection because anyway we won't be able to reach it.
This is a negative way of thinking like using the line "there are worse things than this" or putting the retoric question "what could happen worse?" (and-bang!-the answer comes to shoot us down). This could only lead to a stagnation or to a bad result.
Instead, we can think positive and not only recognize our mistakes but also try to learn from them how to improve ourselves. More ideal would be to observe and listen to others in order to learn from their mistakes. In this way we can be better and better and get closer and closer to perfection. Our efforts will be recognized and rewarded.

Now I will write down some of my mistakes (the ones I remember in this moment) just to let them out and I hope both you and me will learn from them.
  • I trusted everyone has good intentions - but I should be more careful because some people are just pretending. Usually under the most attractive, voluble and kind mask you can discover the most egocentric, perverse and mean personality that uses the charm only in his interest. You can trust more a direct person who critics you and gives you advice and answers than a person who is always kind with you, puts you questions and criticizes others just to make you a confession you didn't ask for; next time you'll be the subject of the gossip.
  • I gave more attention and credit to nice words than to good facts - but I discovered that people who talk much and nice do less and worse. People who talk less and then pass to action are better if you want to see some positive results.
  • I was too lazy - to take care of my health, to cook, to fight for my rights, to sustain my point of view, to do things which I didn't like - but I learned that I should do some things just because they are necessary for my comfort.
  • I gave more importance to others than to myself - and hoped they will appreciate it but they confirmed me that no one will appreciate you if you don't.
  • I acted under the impulse of the moment without thinking at the consequences - and I regreted later because my actions affected people close to me and myself. One should think twice before saying or doing something instead of regreting it later.
  • I played a role just to integrate or leave a group - but I found out that is better to be yourself than to lie yourself. You should analyse if a group fits you before joining it.
  • I gave help and advice without being asked - and that was missunderstood. That's how I found out that people see that like an aggression so is better to help someone only after (s)he asked you to do it. Is also important not to help somebody if that would bring tragic consequences to you.

Well, that was all that I found out in this moment. I am feeling better now that I shared from my experience with you. Now that you discovered my mistakes I hope you won't repeat them and learn how to get closer to perfection.

If you have another opinion or mistakes to share "just do it!"
