When You Make a Mistake – Learn From It

When You Make a Mistake – Learn From It

“Don’t argue for other people’s weakness. Don’t argue for your

own. When you make a mistake, admit it, correct it, and

learn from it immediately.”

Stephen R. Covey 1932 - 2012, American Educator,

Author, Businessman and Keynote Speaker

As I see it . . . . . . .

When you make a mistake – learn from it

No one likes making a mistake . . . . they do happen and they are part of our life.

You can try to deny the mistake . . . . and what happen will likely repeat itself in the future.

You can try to cover up the mistake . . . . and that will likely lead to additional problems and additional stress in your life.

You can admit the mistake . . . . and repair the damage that the mistake  has caused.   

You can do your best to correct the mistake . . . . and put it behind you.

When you make a mistake – learn from it . . . . The lessons you learn will become a valuable resource to you on your success journey.
