Mistakes Are Teachers Season 1 Ep 7

What happens inside your head when you make a mistake? Do you get frustrated, feel embarrassed, or start thinking, “Maybe I’m just not good at this”? In this episode of You’ve Got This with Dr. Shirls, we’re looking at mistakes in a completely different way. Instead of seeing them as proof that we can’t do something, we’ll learn to see them for what they really are: information that can help us grow. Dr. Shirls introduces “The Replay,” a simple strategy that helps us look back at what happened without criticizing ourselves. What worked? What didn’t? What could I try differently next time? With those questions, a mistake stops being something to be ashamed of and starts becoming a teacher. Because mistakes are directions, not destinations. They can show us where to slow down, where to practice, when to ask for help, and what we might try differently next time. You’ve got this.
