How to fix OpenAI Rate limit error?

# attach it to your call
except (RateLimitError, ConnectionError, Timeout, RemoteDisconnected, json.decoder.JSONDecodeError, APIError) as e:
        handle_errors(e)
        
# then handle the errors

        print("Rate limit exceeded, retrying in 2 minutes...")
        time.sleep(120)
    elif isinstance(e, ConnectionError):

        print("API Connection Error, retrying in 10 minutes...")
        time.sleep(600)
    elif isinstance(e, Timeout):
