To rectify past blunders is impossible, but we might profit by the experience of them.

I am a woman in process. I'm just trying like everybody else. I try to take every conflict, every experience, and learn from it. Life is never dull.

Learn from every mistake, because every experience, particularly your mistakes, are there to teach you and force you into being more who you are.

Experience is the only teacher we have. We may talk and reason all our lives, but we shall not understand a word of truth until we experience it ourselves.

Now, there are two different attitudes towards learning from others. One is the dogmatic attitude of transplanting everything, whether or not it is suited to our conditions. This is no good. The other attitude is to use our heads and learn those things that suit our conditions, that is, to absorb whatever experience is useful to us. That is the attitude we should adopt.

We should not look back unless it is to derive useful lessons from past errors, and for the purpose of profiting by dearly bought experience.
