Why is it that something sombody does is called a mistake when they know from the start that what they're ..

wrongdoings and mistakes are categorical. it may be wrong in one perspective but may be right in another. even in the courts of law criminals are determined to be guilty or not. \nhowever, in both instances, "wrong" and "mistake" are decisions made. one decides to his/her best ability that the action to be done is the right one. it is now those who are to be affected by this action who will decide if it is right or wrong, correct or a mistake. \nyour choice to an answer in a test is always your best answer.committing murder may also be the best solution to the criminal.

So you cant repeat mistakes that have already been made.To have an understanding of how we got to where we are, you have to know what came before...

I have often seen these mistakes go unchecked by the teachers at my daughter's school. When I asked why, I was told that the thoughts and emotions being expressed were more important than the manner in which they were expressed. I disagree. I cannot take a person seriously if they cannot spell and punctuate. I'm afraid I automatically assume they are stupid. Sorry!

Most of the time, yes. It's when I second-guess myself that I later think, "Dammit, I should have trusted my first instinct!"

I think sometimes they are defensive to a point of irrationality.  My guess is that it's not  on purpose but rather it's become a habit!  I think that when you feel different you are different...usually because you want to break the patterns that annoy you about you!

its an expression that canbe used to represne tmany mistakes. like forgetting what you were just talking about when a converstaion is interrupted. Or it could be when you forget what you were just watching, or forgetting the simplist of things. All these mistakes happen all the time, depending on how stupid it was is how big of a fart it was.

Life is like a box of chocolates; you never know what you are going to get: That there are surprises in life. You encounter a situation, and you never know what it may hold for you (Like biting into a chocolate; it may be orange creme, or cherry.)\n\nStupid is as stupid does: You are judged by what you do. If you behave in a way that people think is stupid, then you are considered stupid. What you do is what you are.

It was called a soddie (soddy not sure of the spelling).

Everyone makes mistakes.  Some people make the same mistakes over and over again, and some learn valuable life lessons from their errors so they become better people for it.  Some people let their past failures consume them and they won't take any chances in life for fear of making another mistake, others keep trying and don't continue to beat themselves up over past screw-ups.  BOTTOM LINE:  Take what you learn in life and apply it; and don't let fear of what might happen stop you from trying something new or taking a risk.

The correct phrase is "by accident." "On accident" is incorrect.

It's wrong if they are doing it for the wrong reason or if they don't meet standards for safety. Otherwise, it's their business.

Every single person you see who passes you in the street has made mistakes, not one of us are exempt from making mistakes, that is because we are human beings.  We do what we do for various reasons...could be the crowd we hang around with...peer pressure.....it could be because we are hurt and want revenge...it could be for a lot of reasons.  But we all grow up, we all learn about sociably acceptable behaviour and that only comes with experience and time.  If we didnt make mistakes, we would be pretty boring people because it is only when we make mistakes do we trully learn who we are.  What has happened in the past had to happen, simply because it did, you cant go back, you cant change it, but you can certainly change the future.  You can choose not to make those kind of mistakes ever again.  Forgiveness is pretty easy if you have a logical mind.  If you can think that the mistakes you made were because of a particular situation in your life, and you did what you did because that was your frame of mind at the time, then you will be able to forgive yourself.  You are not that person any more....that was the old you.  Sometimes I look back on my past and think to myself...."that wasnt me"...and it wasnt.  I am the me I am now,  the me who made all those mistakes and it is those mistakes that has moulded me into the nice person I am today.\n\nIf you dont learn by your mistakes then you wont grow.  You know they are mistakes, so you have learnt and you will become stronger for it.  You need to put your mistakes where they belong,  they were mistakes of the past, so keep them in the past.  Your future is where the positive stuff lay.  Guilt is such a wasted emotion because the only thing it does is make you feel bad, it doesnt change anything...it cant change what has happened...so think logically about it...you cant change it, so what is the good about beating yourself up over it.  Use the energy you have with guilt and put it to more constructive use.  Move forward, do things that make you feel good about yourself, maybe go and do some voluteer work.  Start thinking good things, start doing good things and you will find out the mistakes of your past gives you the knowledge you have today.  You could use that knowledge for good.  You may be in a position where your mistakes could help some person in the future because you have been there, done that.  Use your mistakes to your advantage....learn from them.  You can do it.  We all make mistakes,  it is something we have all suffered from at some time.  The reason I know you are a decent and wonderful person is because you feel bad about your mistakes....that shows you have a conscience, therefore you cannot be a bad person because bad people dont have a conscience.  Move on...go on to achieve wonderful things and you will have your mistakes to thank for your success.
