Bad Choices
You can only learn from a mistake after you admit you’ve made it. As soon as you start blaming other people you get farther way from overcoming it. But if you courageously stand up and honestly say “This is my mistake and I am responsible” the possibilities for learning will move towards you. If you admit a mistake, even if only to yourself, it makes moving the focus away from blame and towards understanding. Smart people admit their mistakes easily. They know progress happens when they do. If we never learned from our mistakes then the light in this room would never have been made.

We knew that it would be best to say no and go home, but we made a mistake and say yes. My friend and I hung with these kids until late in the night. They were calling people to see if we could get a ride to the party. The one ride they got said they could pick us up at the school nearby. In my town the curfew for under 18 year olds is 11 p.m. It was 11:55. We should have gone to a friend’s house but instead we walked with them to the school. Half way there bright lights blinded us and a cop car pulled up. He asked us all our information and we ended up getting picked up by
