Lighten Up On Yourself For Past Mistakes

Ignorance Causes Mistakes

by Foster Hibbard


It would be a great blessing if you and I could assume

the attitude that every mistake each of us makes is

based upon the information and wisdom that we have

acquired up to that moment. In other words, all

mistakes are based on ignorance.


Had we known better, we would not have made any one

particular mistake. Any mistake we have ever made in

our lives was based on information and wisdom we had

accumulated up to that moment. Everybody is doing his

or her best at all times. If we were wiser, we would

not make mistakes. I am completely convinced that

everybody on earth is constantly acting upon

accumulated information. I believe, therefore, we are

set free from feeling the need ever again of accusing

anyone of anything.
