Failures are the star-stuff dreams are made of
You know how we are all just leftover particles from dead stars?
The very beginning of human knowledge is screwing up, or at the very least, understanding how things work.
Failure= Understanding Success
We can also acknowledge beautiful things unfolding from devastating realties. Waxing philosophical now...
That being said there may be mistakes you'd like to avoid altogether:
Mistake #1: All planning and no action.
Don't plan stuff out and then not do it. Don't do that to yourself, it's not nice.

Mistake #2: Ignoring the house front.
The front of your house should be the first place you look to make a statement about natural spaces and it's likely the one you frequent the most. Just remember:

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
