“Mistakes are just lessons... The worst thing is to be paralyzed by fear. It’s better to fall trying. Then you learn what to do so you don’t fall again.  Every mistake brings you one step closer to being an expert by discovering what's most effective for you.  Just do the best you can and learn from what didn't work.”                                                                                                             -Brian Boitano, figure skater
