Don’t be afraid of mistakes or defeats; they are building blocks for all your successes.

God Always Has a Plan B
Page 125

There are NO mistakes! Remember that. You’re right where you’re supposed to be. The mistakes you THINK you’ve made, brought you where you are. Stop and think for a moment; if you hadn’t made that choice how different would your life be today?

The mistakes you THINK you’ve made are the steps you’ve climbed to your success. I remember a quote from Thomas Edison that points this out very clearly:
“I didn’t fail 3,000 times. I found 3,000 ways how not to create a light bulb.”

You could be one mistake away from creating your dream. Don’t give up!
