The only bad experience is the unevaluated experience. Although experience gives the test first and the lesson later (John Maxwell), it would be even more tragic to have the experience and never bother to get the lesson!
The best way to evaluate our experiences, and thereby make the most of them, is to ask proper questions. Here are a few to get your brain working:
1. What one thing could I change (or do), that would make an enormous difference/improvement in what I am doing? Why am I not already doing it?
2. What mistake am I currently making that I may not even know about?
3. What is my biggest blind spot?
4. What is the biggest thing I have learned about myself recently?
5. What is the number one thing I am trying to change about myself right now?
That’s enough for now. Too many questions loses the focus. This should be enough to get you started. Ask these types of questions of yourself on a regular basis and grow more from your experiences.
Lead on!
