Don't be too hard on yourself :)

Whenever I'm taking driving lessons and the instructor gives me an instruction; I assume that I must do this perfectly.
Because in his instruction I do not hear "try" or anything like this...
Just this command/instruction :P
And off-course; I fail terribly...*

He says;  "pull the car over"

Omg; here it comes, I've messed it up.. again.. story of my life.. I'm a fuck-up..

First thing he asks me: "What's on the roof?"
Huh? What's he talking about? Is this some kind of dreamy metaphor?? :')
"It's an L isn't it?" He asks..
And adds: "An L for learning; not for knowing"
And that's exactly it.

We didn't got out of the womb with all the knowledge in the world.
We didn't get all the proper education on school we needed...
And I sure as hell didn't got all the handles/tools in my upbringing that I needed :P

We all need to do our own falling on our face :')
And probably we don't learn from the first time xD

But if you accept that you are learning and your are really trying; that's good enough.

No need to be negative and hard on yourself..
If anything; it's quite the self-destructing thing to do.





* ...because my standards are way to high
(which I assumed these were the instructor's standards)
