Learn from Past Mistakes

Kabir was known as a clever boy in his village.
He spoke confidently, worked quickly, and believed mistakes were for people who didn’t try hard enough.
One year, Kabir started a small business with his savings.
At first, things went well.
But instead of planning carefully, he rushed decisions and ignored warnings from experienced elders.
Within months, the business failed.
Kabir felt ashamed.
He avoided people, avoided questions, and avoided his own thoughts.
He told himself, “I’m unlucky.”
One afternoon, while cleaning an old storeroom, Kabir found his school report cards.
Some pages praised him.
Others pointed out his weaknesses.
For the first time, Kabir didn’t feel angry reading criticism.
He felt curious.
He realized something important:
His past mistakes followed a pattern—haste, pride, and refusal to listen.
That evening, Kabir wrote down every mistake he had made—not to punish himself, but to understand himself.
He returned to learning.
He asked questions.
He listened more than he spoke.
Years later, Kabir rebuilt his business—slowly, carefully, and honestly.
This time, success stayed.
Kabir finally understood an ethical truth:
Ignoring mistakes repeats them; understanding mistakes releases you from them.
