That is something you are going to have to figure out through trial and error. You may not get it perfectly right in the beginning. You may make the same mistake again in the future. But you will be able to correct it quicker. A good life is not about never making mistakes. It's about wanting to correct them . . . quickly.

Again we hear the phrase "my strong feelings." Your feelings - no matter how strong - are not all that matters.

Or think of it this way: It does not feel nice to be rejected. If you want less rejection in life, then you have to pay attention to how other people feel.
