Very often we waste time, energy and readily available joy because of our failure to acknowledge an error. We know that pencils have erasers. We know that computers allow us to cut and paste. We know that tests can be taken again and wrong sizes exchanged.
Yet for some strange reason, one of our greatest challenges is admitting to ourselves and others that we have made a mistake.
Perhaps as children we were spanked for breaking things, or criticised for shortcomings. Maybe those who raised us wanted so badly for us to be good that they left us little margin for error.
Maybe we have heard so much about human errors that have caused great tragedy, hardship or heartache that we are simply afraid to say…

Sometimes you just have to stick 2 fingers up at life.
You’ve got to stand your ground, look life in the face and say…
“Bring it on!”
You see…
Life happens…regardless.
Good and Bad are different sides of the same coin.
And how you ‘flip it’ is totally up to you.
Because when something appears to be ‘bad’, if you look for the lesson, you might just find it’s really all good.
And when things are good…
Well…
Appreciate and enjoy the moment
So the next time it feels like life’s kicking you in the teeth…
Stick two fingers up in the ‘V’ for victory sign…
And go forth and conquer!

Author John Roger wrote, “We are only born once into life, but in life we are re-born many times.” He was describing the many “mini-deaths” we experience in our journey through life.
We die to old ways of being to be reborn in our power.
We die to old beliefs to be reborn in our truth.
We die to habits of need, dependency and control to be reborn in reliance on Spirit.
We die to fear of Spirit to be reborn into Spirit of fearlessness.
We are taught that death is the end. It is, we believe, the darkness into which we plunge, never to return, of which no one can speak.
As long as you are still breathing, death becomes what we commonly call change.
Until today, you may not have been aware of the many times you have faced death or the ways in which death can alter your state of being. Just for today, lay down your notions and fears about death and be willing to change.
Today, be willing to accept death in order to change.
(An extract from Iyanla Vanzant’s powerful book, ‘Until Today!’)
What else could you have done?
You keep turning the experience over in your mind. You are rethinking your actions and responses, which leads to questioning and doubting yourself. Instead of making yourself crazy, why not ask and honestly answer this one simple question, “What else could I have done?”
Then take it one step further by asking, “If you could have done it, why didn’t you do it?”
Could you have been more considerate? Compassionate? Understanding? Probably.
Could you have been more patient? More tolerant? More cautious? Well, what do you think?
Could you have said more or less? Could you have listened a bit closer? Could you have planned better? Waited longer?
Off course you could have…but you didn’t.
When you feel sufficiently remorseful, overwhelmingly confused and totally beaten down, you will be on the brink of a divine revelation!
You will be face to face with something you probably never considered. Something too simple! Too easy!
The truth is…
