Mistakes and Growth

Growth is not a straight path, and I will not shame myself for the twists, stumbles, and setbacks along the way. Mistakes are not proof of failure but evidence that I am trying, learning, and evolving. I give myself permission to be unfinished, to not have all the answers, to change my mind as I gather wisdom. Each misstep is a lesson, each detour an opportunity to see things differently. I will not hold myself to impossible standards or let perfectionism rob me of progress. Instead, I will nurture my growth with patience, compassion, and the understanding that becoming my fullest self is a lifelong journey.
