Can you learn from your past mistakes?  

yes, this is the natural way to rectify one's mistakes if he/she wants to modify him/herself. The past mistakes are sort of lessons that give one warning or alert what he/she should do now in the similar situation as he/she had faced in the past.

Apart from this "past mistakes" are great experience which make one wiser and this is surely learning.

ofcourse we can, if we realize our mistakes. the more mistakes we have made and learned from, the smarter and stronger and more functional we can be.

Yes, we can. However, first we must accept that we have made a mistake. Then we must try to understand what went wrong or where we went wrong. Whether we could have avoided making the mistake. What could we have done to avoid making that mistake. It is all about thinking and understanding and analysing.

Once we have understood the problem. we can think about how to avoid it. This will help in our future life whenever the same or a similar situation arises.
