    Its upon us on how we choose to think, positive or negative. This choice
    has a significant impact on how we behave, the result has an impact on
    everything we do. There is no starting point in life for becoming positive.
    Mistakes helps us get up and give full attention on an issue which is going
    on in our life like a flashing sign that says, “fix this issue”. The created
    problem causes us to focus on issues or problems that make us feel off
    track. Then we experience the values of mistakes, we get a clear message
    about which of our efforts are working and which are not. The feedback
    we get from our mistakes can be the most specific, pointed, and powerful
    feedback we’ll ever get.
