Making Mistakes
August 5, 2009

Why is it that we feel a degree of shame when we
make mistakes?

Somehow when we went to school we were
taught that you were only successful when you
got things right. The corollary to this is that when
you got things wrong you were a failure!

Have you ever made a mistake?

When you did, did you feel a degree of shame?

Shame is the reason why many mistakes get hidden and never brought into the open
and fixed. Often people bury them because they do not want to suffer the shame of
being found out, but making mistakes is part of the learning process.

When making the light bulb Thomas Edison did not get it right first time and did
many different and varied experiments.

When asked about all the mistakes he said:

“I have not failed. I’ve just discovered 10,000 ways that won’t work.”

Learning from mistakes is a key part of being a successful business owner and
learning transparently always speeds up the process to a better future.



*********************************************************************

Are you a business owner?

Are you finding that you're working harder than ever, but at the end of the
month you wonder where all the money has gone?

Are you worried that another year of your life will                      pass you
by, and you'll have made no real progress?
How would you like to spend 60 seconds and get
a business "health check" that will pinpoint the EXACT problem that
your business is facing and give you specific, targeted advice about how
to turn your business around and unlock the true wealth and potential
locked up in the business you already own?

It's easy, it's simple, it only takes one minute, and the best part of all, it's
100% free:
