Mistakes

If you're taking action, you'll make mistakes. When you make a mistake, you just learned something.

Admit your mistakes and examine them carefully. Take responsibility for them, and learn from them. Mistakes are superb teachers. Knowing what doesn't work, can be a tremendous help in determining what WILL work.

Successful, effective people learn from everything that happens, including mistakes. When you make a mistake, the best policy is to pick up the pieces and look carefully at what happened. Don't tear yourself up over it. Just examine it and learn from it. Then apply your new knowledge and try again.
