What are some things that you have learned in life that came from making a mistake. What is the best lesson learned. Some of mine are you can't make everybody happy, if you have something that needs done go ahead and do it because if not it will still be there and probably be a bigger job the longer you put it off, always know your limit when drinking alcohol because the nest morning is crap, the number one and most important to me is I've learned to always treat my family and friends with love and to always tell them I love them because it may be the last time I see them.

I've learned that I can't fix everyone who has problems. If someone needs professional help, then it doesn't matter how much I listen and give advice and try to teach them to help themselves. I've learned to back off and let someone who has been trained to help people in these situations instead of thinking that it's my responsibility.

Wow, you have some great lessons learned. About the best other than yours is to believe. Faith and prayer are my stability. If you have faith and believe all things are possible.
