How do you know when you've made the same mistake again?

March 01 2013

Although you don't want to believe it??What are your filters? And what made you put them in place?

    If I make a huge mistake for the worst and ended with bad consequences...it a given not doin again. I learn from them and try not to do again...its those experiences that teach us a lesson..Life skillls. Some people no matter what keep placing themselves in same situations...its like a vicious cycle and hard to get out..no matter how one tries.. This is were friends and family should step in..they are there as guide filters...support. For me iit's about choices...making right or wrong..questioning is this a good or bad choice? I believe its a good thing to actually get in tune and feel those feelings of making good and bad choices. After all we are humans..we are not perfect.Humans are allowed to make mistakes as long as not repeative.. Foxy- Posted from rhpmobile

    Experience is merely the name men (and women?) give to their mistakes. Learn from it. If you know it might be a mistake then you have some reservations. Superfox has it right. It is about choice. Make a choice and have no regrets. There is no point going, what if I had done that instead of this. You are right Superfox, some (many?) people keep on doing the same thing over and over. Most probably because it is familiar to them and they fear the unknown. That fear is what drives people to be in that vicious circle. People are funny that way. They do not want to acknowledge they made a mistake due to their pride.

    There is one lesson above all others that always leads my way like a shining beacon.   "When someone shows you who they are....believe them the first time" Maya Angelou.   My own interpretation of this is that people can tell me anything they like, sometimes it is lovely to hear their story BUT i will only believe their actions.   Humans will ALWAYS act in accordance with their values so watch rather than listen

    you are sooo right and if it seems to good to be true,it probably is.Trite but true. As Foxy says ,get in touch with what you are feeling.If there is doubt,then check it out.Most people can fool you for a short time but eventually their true colours show.If they are evassive then they are probably hiding something.But don't feel bad OE,none of us are perfect and yes we make mistakes because we let people into our lives.Just hone the skills of crap detection,some people are very good liars,some people know how to charm to get what they want....but not everyone is like that...just some.

    Freya, I have to agree with you. If it is too good to be true, it most definitely is. Therefore, I have missed so many get rich quick schemes that I am have to earn a living rather than laughing all the way to the bank. Then again, I personally believe that you appreciate things more after earning it the hard way. Same thing in romance. If you do not appreciate your partner, do not expect it to last. Karynb. I also find that a good way to judge people. I find it a bit difficult via messages but easier in person. If there is a discrepancy between what they say and do, your alarm bells should go off. I have learnt that the hard way.
