My personal philosophy in life has always been one of looking to make mistakes early on.
I have always believed that, sooner or later, mistakes are going to happen, but when they happen early on they make you stronger.
This could apply to the child that grew up in a mollycoddle household and when they go out in the world (e.g. to high school) they struggle because they're the 'weaker' one, so to speak.
Or perhaps it could apply to a moto racing driver who has had no falls at all, but then later on he gets traumatised by his very first one.
In other words, the world is tough out there and I strongly believe that the more 'bumps' you hit along the road, the better resilient you become.
This applies to trading as well IMO.
