    I think this is only bad if they don’t recognize their mistakes and just discourage you from even trying to achieve something.

    Learning from other people’s mistakes is a useful skill.

      So is people learning from their own mistakes, and many people never do. These skills come as a pair. The mistakes don’t have to be yours to learn, but it helps make the lesson far more impactful.
