Everyone has a limit on the number of mistakes they can tolerate — and the higher that limit, the greater the chance of reaching any goal.
The essence is this: any path to a big goal is a series of rejections, failures, and setbacks. The real question is how many of those failures you can withstand while still moving forward — without falling into frustration, abandoning the goal, or devaluing yourself. That reserve is your mistake limit.
Some people have a limit of zero. They never even try, because it feels much more comfortable to stay in the “preparing” stage than to face failure.
Others have a low limit — they break after the first setback. And some have a genuinely high limit. For them, every failure is just statistics, and the result is only a matter of time.
The difference isn’t that some people are smarter and others are dumber. The difference is in how the mistake is perceived internally. If your results are tied to your self-esteem and self-confidence, your mistake limit is extremely low — and reaching the goal will be extremely hard.
The good news is that this limit can be increased. It is done by setting up an effective mindset.
