Making the Right Mistakes; For the Plot

By -

The thing with adulting is that everything is ultimately up to you, there are always decisions to make and unfortunately, the pursuit of perfection often becomes a mirage, in my opinion shielding you from the joy of life which in itself is an imperfection. Making mistakes is not only inevitable but essential, but I bet you already know that. The beauty of imperfection lies in the lessons we glean from our missteps, shaping us into more resilient and adaptable beings.

The key is not to aim for a flawless journey but to make informed mistakes whose consequences are bearable and, more importantly, affordable. This mindset shift grants us control over our lives, allowing us to navigate through uncertainties with a little more confidence as opposed to fear and regret.

Think of yourself as the artist who dares to experiment with unconventional mediums, finding their unique voice amidst the cacophony of critiques. Your life belongs unequivocally to you, as such it is important to make it a life you would be proud of, both the good and bad. You go into business understanding the risk and only investing what you’re okay with losing, and such is how I think you should live, in understanding of risk and in challenging that risk.

Embracing the philosophy of making the "right mistakes" empowers us to live more authentically. It encourages us to evaluate our choices critically, ensuring that their repercussions are within our capacity to manage. I was talking to someone and they asked, isn’t that a glorification of failure? But I say, its only recognizing that failure is a vital component of success and a beautiful plot. By accepting that perfection is an illusion, we open ourselves to a world of possibilities, where every mistake is a step closer to either a beautiful dead end or an even more interesting turnout.

Ultimately, making the right mistakes is about exercising control over our responses to life's unpredictabilities. It teaches us to be gentle with ourselves, to reflect, adapt, and move forward with either the invaluable lessons learned or beautiful stories. In this way, we not only navigate our paths more wisely and fun but also contribute to a culture that values growth over perfection, encouraging others to embrace their journey with all its imperfections.

Let's go back to the Basics.

Abused by love.

The question usually is why I called my blog Basics. The answer is rather simple, the things I talk about are things we already know about, they're basic. All I do is provide a little retrospect and sometimes different perspective. I discovered that we know so much, but knowing only implies understanding, it does not mean it. What I'm going to be writing about below are things you know, and I'm sorry about the monotony but as you read this, it's of import that you pay attention; that you understand. So recently, one of the most urban and gorgeous person I know was abused, and talking to her I kept realizing that it's not that she didn't know, it's not naivety that gets people abused. It really isn't. As children of God, I find that humans, like their father, are very judgemental. And sitting in the seat of the judge means you feel pure, exempt from the happenings of those you judge. We convince ourselves that we would handle things better if ...

The Art of Gifting

I intended to write about this way early into last year because of how shit the gifts I received that year was, but life comes at you so fast I hadn’t gotten time to research and do the yadayada before writing an article such as this. But then I met someone that reignited that spark only this time it was different, the complete opposite. They gifted me with sequences that were the most thoughtful gifts ever, and I mean ever. But then it occurred to me that it was much more than the thoughtfulness of the gifts and thus we are here to explore gifting a little more. I am overflowing with emotion over those gifts as I write this; Before we delve into it, love languages are meant to be independent as well as integrated and as such, this article is not meant for gifters and lovers that only understand love in gifting rather this is an article for you if you intend to express a little more love into the world, to your loved ones, to your victims. You see dear reader, gifts aren...

Expectations

The most prevalent wrong advice I've heard is 'don't have expectations and you won't get hurt.' and while I would see where that comes from, I just go whotf. So I have two problems with this advice, one is "you won't get hurt?" And you people actually believe that,? How much longer are we going to deny the fact that like happiness, hurt and pain is what life is? I mean, don't you want character development? Ha. And two is "don't have expectations?" What? (You gotta say the "what" like @stacythiru does) So, you just get what you get and that's it? You don't get to yearn for more and better? That's bullshit if you ask me.  Basically, this is me telling you the thing about expectations. One, most expectations are natural. It's what's expected. Like you getting good grades, you might get told that you have to over and over, but you already know you have to. No one sits down and writes things they ...
