Hi, I'm Matthew Hussey, welcome to Love Life. It's a privilege to be able to offer you

bite-sized bits of advice on this podcast that you can use every day. But what if you're

ready for a big transformation and you want to do it now? You want to reinvent your career

or finally find lasting love or break free from the self-doubt that's holding you back

from living the abundant life you were meant to live. If you're saying yes, Matt, that's

me. I'm going to tell you exactly how to do just that at the end of today's show. So

make sure you stay tuned. First, let's get to today's episode.

I want to ask you a question today and that is how okay are you with making mistakes? We're

going to be talking about this subject is how can you get okay with mistakes? Because

I know so many people are so terrified of making mistakes that they never even try things.

And this is an age-old lesson that we have probably heard every theory on by now and

there's probably nothing I'm going to say that's new to you. But my aim always is not

necessarily to say something new but to say it in a way that actually resonates. And I

want to come at this from the slightly counter-intuitive place that I come at a lot of things

with. And that's to look at mistakes a slightly different way. The first place I go when I'm

trying to associate positively with mistakes, which is really what we have to do. Because

when we associate negatively with mistakes, that's why we don't want to make them. I start

thinking about scientists and the life of a scientist. The life of a scientist is 99%

mistakes. They is trial and error, trial and error, trial and error. They experiment and

every failed experiment is about getting them another result that they know didn't work.

But no scientist in their right mind ever bailes even after 10 mistakes or 20 mistakes

or 30 mistakes. They make hundreds upon hundreds of mistakes, which they just see as tests.
