Carl Jung said there are no mistakes in life. There is only "trying' and learning what he called anschlag.
Also, if you read Robert Sapolsky (brilliant)on free will and determinism, he says we do not have free will. Everything we are and have experienced, now and in all generations before, compels us to do what we do. We think we have free will and the responsibility and accountability for our "choices" in thought and action. "It's my fault."
We don't and it's not. You had to do what you did. You had no free will to make a choice.
IT'S NOT YOUR FAULT. Relax.

@shmerdloff What did Jung mean by Anschlag in this context? I understand the word, would translate it as « attack » usually, like a bomb attack. I don’t understand it related to the idea that there are no mistakes in life.
