Love that you have broken free of that one. This morning I gave a talk to University students. We discussed the LIE of get good grades, rarely make mistakes (because you are an exceptional student of this fine university)find a "practical" major, graduate and live happily ever after. HA! My advice be willing to suck and learn and learn and try things and deep practice. Conventional wisdom. Love that you have broken free of that one. This morning I gave a talk to University students.

I now honor my authentic self, even if that means not having as many friends that is okay with me. On my alter I would have failures/hardships without them I would not be where I am now or for that matter be the person I am now and for that I am grateful.

Mistakes are learning opportunities and we're going to make a ton of them over our lifetimes because no one is perfect. And failure does not mean the end of the world, unless you're in a catastrophic action movie. I used to believe that my mistakes equaled failure and that failure was the worst thing possible.

Success, maybe - fulfillment not so much. In order for work to be fulfilling, it must address the needs of your head, your heart and your hands. In other words: you find it intellectually stimulating, you believe that what you do makes a difference in the world, and when you do work in that arena you experience that delicious sense of "flow". For me, that's speaking in front of a group of people about something that will help them in their personal growth and development. "Ah hah" moments of others are spiritual gold for me.
