We all make mistakes. Experts and novices alike make mistakes. Some mistakes are harmless, and we get lucky that no one notices, but other times the mistakes we make become a wake-up call to course-correct our ways.
We can learn from other people’s mistakes, but sometimes the only way for an idea to sink in is by making a mistake and learning from it. Yes, it feels horrible to make a mistake, but it is also a learning opportunity.
So let’s talk about the mistakes we have made to learn from each other’s experiences.
