Make a success out of the mess. 7 tips for starting over.

Starting over is not proof of failure but a conscious effort to continue living. It is not proof of time wasted but a manifestation of lessons learnt from mistakes, regardless of how those mistakes came about. It is not proof of weakness but a courageous expression of strength. Strength to face yourself and the ailing situation head-on. It takes courage to admit to mistakes and embark on a humble journey to implement the lessons learnt.
It is a journey of courage that most would dare not take because it may mean going back to being a child again and being curious about what is possible.
Starting over is proof of growth and the need to adapt as you grow. It is not necessarily a sign of regression or failure.
We make financial mistakes, choose the wrong partners, don't pay attention to red flags along the way and let adrenaline cloud our judgement. That is being human. What is also human and permissible is to pause, reconsider, re-organise and execute new methods based on lessons learnt.
