Simplified Meaning:

Everyone makes mistakes; it's part of being human. The important thing is to learn from these mistakes and use them to become smarter and better in the future. Imagine you are learning to ride a bike, and you fall a few times. Each time you fall, you understand what went wrong and make adjustments to avoid falling again. Similarly, in life, every error or wrong decision is a lesson. By reflecting on what happened, you can avoid making the same mistakes in the future. This way, mistakes help you grow and become wiser.
