Many many moons ago I was in the Army (plan on going back here soon). Any way why I was in Basic training I messed up on an inspection we had. Needless to say aside from that fact I new I was going to get reamed by my Drill instructor I felt like a failure. I mean I knew, flat out KNEW I was better than that. I slipped up, took a rout that seemed easy to me and didn’t do things the way I should have.
My Drill Sgt. how ever did not really tear into me. I am sure he could see I felt like I was a looser by messing up. He stuck that big hat of death brim on my forehead and half-yelled. “DON’T SAY YOUR SORRY TO ME!!!! DO IT RIGHT AND DRIVE ON!!!” Needles to say he did make me do a LOT of pushups after that but the point was well made and stuck.
Try not to feel bad and beat your self up. You slipped, you know it. Learn, remember and drive on, no harm no foul
Not to sure if that helps but I know it pops into my head now and again when I mess up and it seems to help me some.
Drive on, no one is 100% all the time
