Mistakes and Learning
- Do not follow what other people have learnt, and do not allow them to create the rules of society of what works and doesn’t work. Other peoples mistakes are other peoples mistakes they are nothing to do with you. When you learn from your mistakes, you learn what NOT to do, but not necessarily what you should do next. Learning from your success will always tell you what to do next, therefore it is important to understand that failure is not a prerequisite to success

Coping with relapses
It is common to have a setback. Once the initial streak of success has worn off, you may lose momentum and fail to press on.
Do not take an all-or-nothing approach. Do not stop altogether. Instead, be flexible and learn from your mistakes.
18. Success is never letting a disability hold you back.
Disabilities do not define a person’s success. The body and mind will compensate. Just because you can’t do absolutely everything doesn’t mean you can’t do something. Do what your body and mind allow and always push yourself. That is true success.
