Learning From Your Mistakes

by: Beth Victoria Suwito

Have you ever made a mistake? If you have, then welcome to the club. Everyone has made mistakes because we are all just humans who make mistakes. Mistakes are simply a part of everyone’s daily routines. It’s a normal thing.

That’s why you shouldn’t dwell on the mistakes you’ve made. Regretting things and feeling sorry for yourself won’t do much. What you have to do is learn from them. Treat those mistakes like a lesson. Don’t beat yourself up over a small mistake. In order to grow, you have to learn from them.

Another thing is that you should also be patient with other people’s mistakes. Remember that it’s a human thing. People can’t be perfect. Everyone is learning. That’s why you should be patient with them.

Mistakes are just life’s little pebbles. You can stumble across them and you can trip from them. It’s not a huge boulder that’ll stop you from reaching your dreams. It’s a small mishap that could give you a valuable lesson.

Don’t think of mistakes as something that’ll ruin your life. Just try your best to not make the same mistake over and over again. It’s no use saying sorry and feeling bad if there isn’t any change in yourself. Learn from them and find out how you can prevent the same thing from happening.

Don’t put too much pressure on yourself to not make mistakes. Instead, you should try your best to do whatever task is given. Try your best and all will be okay.

If anyone tries to shame you for your mistakes, simply say sorry and not do the same mistake again. The important part is what you do after the mistake.

So, let’s all grow together from the mistakes that we made!

Bersungguh-Sungguhlah Maka Kamu Akan Berhasil

by: Nala Zakina Pepatah “Man Jadda Wa Jadda” yang berarti 'bersungguh-sungguhlah maka kamu akan berhasil' menjadi ciri khas dalam novel trilogi ‘Negeri 5 Menara’ karya Ahmad Fuadi, novel yang diinspirasi dari kisah nyata sang penulis.

It's A Brand New Day!

By: Beth Victoria Suwito Every day is a brand new day itself. A fresh start and a clean slate. Though, sometimes we forget about that. Sometimes we wallow in yesterday’s despair and think of today as nothing but an extension of yesterday. Even so, this is a reminder that your week isn’t determined by one bad day! If you had a pretty bad yesterday, start the day by listening to “Brand New Day” by Cherrybelle to lift up your mood for today. Why that song specifically? Well, here are a few lyrics from that song that can really help you brighten your day! 1. “Tunjukkan dunia kau pasti bisa” / “Show the world that you can” This is for those times when you feel like you’re not enough or just unmotivated. You have to remember that you can and that you are capable . Society can really bring us down with their expectations and standards but this is your chance to show them otherwise. Show them that you can! 2. “Just be strong, just be brave, and be sure, yes you can” The lyric is pretty s...

Good Damage: Justifying the Trauma, Does it All Happen for a Reason?

by: Rebecca Karenia “All the damage I got isn't good damage.. it's just.. damage. I haven't got nothing out of it and all those years I was miserable was for nothing.” The quote you see above was taken from Diane's monologue from the show Bojack Horseman. The character Diane Nguyen, a 40 year old aspiring writer, was contemplating whether she should continue writing her first book or stop altogether since it does not serve any purpose to all the hardships and trauma she went through. Sounds familiar? Let's dive deep into it! Oftentimes you may find yourself thinking that the trauma you’ve gone through in the past, happens to you for a reason. It must’ve happened with a purpose, right? And so in order to serve this purpose, you forge strength and resilience to become someone different- someone who learned from their mistakes. Someone who knows better about the truth and harshness of the real world. You define your own suffering and give it a whole new meaning so th...
