Dear Shh, Happy New Year and a big YES! Falling back and knowing it gives you the opportunity to pick yourself up from the fall. And that experience is a powerful learning experience. I don't believe you can learn to pick yourself up from a fall without falling first. Knowing you can pick yourself up from a fall because you have experience doing it nourishes your confidence and builds your courage. You will dare to do what you need to do knowing that you might fail and also knowing that if you fail you can pick yourself up and continue on. Get it? :)
