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.

Interesting Way to Avoid Poverty

Motivational Power Quote

Interesting Way to Avoid Poverty

“You need to do things in this country to avoid poverty – finish

high school, marry before having a child and marry after the

age 20.Only 8 percent of the families who do this are poor;

79 percent of those who fail to do this are poor .”

William Galston, Chair in Studies and Fellow at the

Brookings Institution

As I see it . . . . . . .

Interesting way to avoid poverty

They sound so simple . . . . could they be true?

Could a person prevent living a lifetime of poverty .  . . . by finishing high school?

Is it a good idea to wait to be married . . . . before you have a child?

What about waiting to be married until you’re . . . .  after the of age 20?

What I find interesting is that only 8% of the families who follow those 3 simple steps life a life in poverty . . . . 79% of the people who fail to follow the steps are poor.

Is there a lesson to be learned in the quote? And how is that lesson passed onto the children . . . . so they live a life without poverty?

 

is there a success tip embedded in the quote?
