Short YouTube monologue (single speaker) presenting self-help advice about coping with mistakes: ask "what's true," avoid negative rumination, acknowledge you made the best decision you could in the moment, learn the lesson, and "leave the event" as advised by a mentor. The speaker emphasizes there is no going back and that everyone makes mistakes.

The way I do it is I ask myself what's true. You can write a narrative in your head and spin yourself down a negative path and beat yourself up and second guess and go back. But what's true is you made what you thought was the best decision in the moment, and then you leave it behind. I have a mentor of mine that says, learn the lesson, leave the event. You leave the event behind and you learn everything you can from it. And there's no going back. Everyone makes mistakes.
