Not every mistake is bad, in fact, we learn from failure more often than we do from success. There is nothing wrong with making a mistake so long as you are ready to handle the consequences. A life without any mistakes is often poorly lived. In fact, you may never gain any rewards if you fail to take risks. Some people are too scared of making mistakes that they make themselves and others to be crazy perfectionists. Here are stupid mistakes that many people make and what you can learn from them.

1. Waiting upon the ideal moment
You keep waiting for the right time to do everything such that every opportunity escapes you. Although patience is a virtue, you should not wait too long to act. There is no perfect moment in the real world. If you want to seize a promotion, do not wait for next year, do it now. However, research for the opportune moment. After all, you are at liberty of adjusting your speed after you get going.

2. Assuming the small achievements
Your best chance of achieving your big dreams is by attempting the small goals, one at a time. Look at ever goal as a series of the small milestones. Monitor the small changes, whether they are good or bad. You will be motivated; thus making you psyched up for the next milestone.

3. Fearing embarrassment
The fact that you make a mistake that nobody knows you did does not make it less of a mistake. Sometimes you will make mistakes that people will notice and you will feel embarrassed. Being seen failing and getting embarrassed is part of life and there is nothing wrong. Embarrassment is simply a fleeting emotion that will not last long. Wear your actions with all the pride, regardless of the risks. If you admit defeat gracefully and with a smile, the support and love you get from others will make you strong for next time.
