The Secret About Mistakes (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781958873083)

Want to know the biggest secret about mistakes?

Do you know someone who wants everything to be perfect? They might be afraid of saying the wrong thing at the wrong time, messing up on a big test, or making the wrong choice. In fact, some people get so scared of making a mistake that they stop trying new things altogether. Children (and adults) who worry about being wrong or making mistakes may try to control situations to ensure their success, blame others for their failings, see themselves in a negative light, or be critical in general. They may have trouble making decisions for fear of making the wrong one. It's exhausting trying to avoid mistakes all the time and can shut you off to some wonderful new experiences.

What should you do?

Gently teach the perfectionist in your life how to accept mistakes and learn from them! You teach them that mistakes are just part of life, and it's OK to make mistakes! Sometimes, it can even be good (if you learn from them). But how do you do this?

Pick up your copy of this book and help the perfectionist in your life learn that mistakes really are ok!
