How to use "Mess-up" in context?
There are moments during our lives when we make a mistake. More often than not, those mistakes don't bother us very much. In fact, they often slip our mind and we move on. But occasionally, a mistake can cause significant harm or inconvenience.
This is usually where our mess-up mindset comes in. When a mistake becomes unavoidable, we begin to worry about what it could have potentially done. We replay the events of the mistake in our heads, trying to figure out where we went wrong. And we learn the hard way that nobody is ever perfect.
