Mistakes

My life is rife with them.

Some zigging instead of zagging, outright stepping in traps, and occasional saving from jaws of defeat.

All a result of mistakes.

Some of my greatest triumphs are the result of mistakes.

Yes, it can be a relative term, as can most things.

And there are mistakes on all levels.

Kind of like 'if only' (I had a gun etc) there are frequent regrets as a side dish to the blunder.

There is resolutely going on no matter what .

There is giving up.

Misunderstanding has its way and some live a lie without knowing it.

Some wonder and dig deeper, finding something shiny in the muck.

Others learn from a mistake and never make the same one again.

Yet more never learn and live in a cycle of repetition, the vicious circle.

I remember a gal in local theater who was a stickler for certain ways of doing things re acting and production in general.

She saw a well known actress perform locally. Apparently this actress 'did all the wrong things' but performed brilliantly anyway. Uhuh.

Mistakes may simply be a new or different way of operating.

Finding what works can be trial and error.

Thus, learn from mistakes.

You may be instituting something that works beyond the ken.
