I’m grateful a mistake I made today let me see that I have grown and changed my mental hardwiring. via /r/gratitude

Today, I made a mistake at work. I’ll probably get a consequence of some sort. Not something so serious I’ll get fired but a little black mark on a previously clean record.

What was wonderful about this is that for most of my life a thing like this would lead me to spiral into anxiety and fear. Today, it was just, “Oh, well.” It let me see that all the work I’ve done on myself is having an impact.
