In my opinion, it is somewhat preferable to commit small mistakes to have the experiences of failure to prepare for life’s next bump in the road.

Will my parents, spouse, or significant other approve or be embarrassed?
Will I lose my job, and most importantly, will it hurt?
If you answer these questions you will easily develop and discover your own, “Well, I Will Never” do list,
