“Our mistakes can be the portals to discovering ourselves.”

Alain de Botton

Simplified Meaning:

Everyone makes mistakes, but those mistakes help us learn more about who we really are. Think of it like getting lost in a new city. At first, you might feel scared or frustrated, but as you find your way, you discover new places and perhaps meet new people. This journey helps you understand your strengths and weaknesses better. For instance, if you fail an exam, it might seem bad at first, but it can teach you how to study better or manage your time. By learning from mistakes, you get to know yourself and grow as a person. So, don't be afraid to make mistakes; see them as opportunities to learn and improve.
