 Thank you MTG for this sincere personal insight! I'm sure a lot of us felt or still feel the same way, especially about mistakes. We can't learn without them, yet we feel so terrified by someone noticing them. It's a complexed issue that has been going on for ages in this world and visible in any kind of practice. With most of strict cultures, we are taught that **mistakes lead to failure**, but almost never taught about **mistakes being the main carrier of the process,** we shouldn't fear them, we should learn from them and how to fix them and sometimes we can't do that alone, nor we shouldn't always go alone trough the learning process. That's why being active in communities make the journey easier and more fun! We have the opportunity to interact with a lot of people that have different knowledge and help us when we're stuck and vice versa. Communities are the place where making mistakes is normalized as a very important part of the process that brings useful interactions.
