Let's make mistakes in 2014

  • Popular Post

A friend just shared these words, by Neil Gaiman, and you might find them encouraging or inspiring... words to live by :-)

I hope that in this year to come, you make mistakes.

Because if you are making mistakes, then you are making new things, trying new things, learning, living, pushing yourself, changing yourself, changing your world.

You're doing things you've never done before and, more importantly, you're Doing Something.

So that's my wish for you and all of us and my wish for myself. Make New Mistakes. Make glorious, amazing mistakes. Make mistakes no one's ever made before. Don't freeze, don't stop, don't worry that it's not good enough or isn't perfect, whatever it is; art or love or work or family or life.

Whatever it is you're scared of doing - do it.

Go ahead now Indigo. Great post and I'm loving what you said. I will definitely be joining you making some mistakes in 2014.

I like something Vince Vaughn said in a movie...." let's get drunk and make some bad decisions".

That could lead to some mistakes. Make NO mistake about that!
