Mistake review

What is it?

Repeatedly going over errors or regrets in a way that increases shame instead of learning.

How do people work on it?

Patterns often ease when people bring gentleness and structure to what they notice.

Start by naming the pattern without judgment, then remind yourself that noticing it is already a useful first step.

Writing the thought down, checking what is actually known, taking a few slow breaths, or asking for support can help create enough space to respond differently.
