I did the best I could with the information I had at the time...
I appreciate these uplifting words from Danielle Coke Balfour (a.k.a., Oh Happy Dani):
“5 things to remind yourself of after making a mistake:
- I did the best I could with the information I had at the time.
- Mistakes are natural bumps on the journey of being human.
- Perfection is unattainable & a gruel standard to hold myself to.
- My learnings will become a blueprint for future decisions.
- This moment does not define me. I am more than my missteps.”
