⭐LEARN FROM YOUR MISTAKES⭐

Oscar Wilde famously said that experience is just another name for the mistakes we make. This rings true, as long as we learn from those mistakes. In today's increasingly unpredictable world of constant change, information overload, multiculturalism, and technological disruption, mistakes are inevitable.

Most people dislike making errors, but management expert Tom Peters argues in his book Thriving on Chaos that we can't afford perfectionism. The quickest way to find solutions is through rapid testing, making mistakes, learning, and adjusting. He advocates that we embrace and even celebrate mistakes as opportunities for growth. He thinks we should become "mistake maniacs".

⭐Happy accidents⭐

It's worth remembering that many discoveries and inventions have happened by accident. In the early 1970s, Arthur Fry wanted a bookmark for his church hymnal that wouldn't fall out or damage the pages. His colleague at 3M, Spencer Silver, had developed an adhesive that wasn't strong enough to stick two surfaces together (as planned) but left no residue after removal and allowed items to be repositioned. Fry put some of Silver's adhesive along the edge of a piece of paper. His church hymnal problem was solved, and the Post-it note was invented.

Viagra was originally developed to treat cardio-vascular problems. In testing, it must have become (very) clear that it wasn't just the heart that was affected.

And the famous inventor Thomas Edison made thousands of failed prototypes of his electric light bulb before finally succeeding. When asked why he hadn't given up, he explained that each failure had taught him something he needed to know for the next attempt. Edison was clearly a mistake maniac.

⭐Turn mistakes into experience⭐

1. Accept the mistake

When you make a mistake, admit it as soon as you can first to yourself and then to others. The sooner you accept that a mistake has happened, and take responsibility for it, the sooner you can start learning from it.

2. Analyse and get feedback

Study where you went wrong, so you'll know what to do differently next time. It can help you in identifying solutions to future problems, too. It's helpful to get feedback from trusted colleagues. A mentor can give you advice on how they've managed similar situations.

3. Find the lesson to be learned

Keep a diary. Record your mistake along with your analysis and the feedback you received. Then, make a plan with specific steps to prevent the same mistake from happening again.

Some organizations have online mistake diaries that everyone can contribute to, in which mistakes and their solutions are posted.

4. Check your learning progress

Use a simple learning checklist at regular intervals to help you learn from these experiences.

5. Always be a learner

Develop a learning mindset and be prepared to take some risks. Prioritize where you want to develop, concentrating on one thing at a time. Put time aside for your learning. Share your goals with someone you trust, so they can encourage and support you. A mistake maniac is ultimately a lifelong learner.

⭐Essential phrases⭐

4. Check your learning progress

I need to check whether my approach is working.

5. Always be a learner

One step at a time.

Honesty: Upholding Integrity in a Complex World

[softstrengthyogaandpainblog]

This complex, interconnected, media driven world is designed to tangle us up, to tie us in knots, to catch us. Yoga is a lifeline, a necessity. Loosen the ties. Disentangle.

I'm just too stupid to understand the world in different ways to see the idea practically without trying to understand every little detail.

“Your scars tell who you are. Your skin is the page, and your scars are the ink, telling the story of your life. And your scars make you beautiful.” - LIKEL1K3 . . 🌟QOTD: If you were to enter into your current read, how would you fare? . . Happy Tuesday friends!! I had a hard time picking today’s prompt of complex worlds because their are SO MANY amazing authors who excel at world building. But Jay is definitely one of the most creative. From Illuminae and Aurora Rising (hello SPACE?!?) to Nevernight and LIFEL1K3 he has created so many unique places that all feel like they are SUPER real to me! I’m currently reading TRUEL1F3 and I definitely would not survive in this world...or maybe I would become extra scrappy like Lemon Fresh and survive. Either way this book is incredible and I’m going to be sad to leave it when I finish!! Would you survive in your current read’s world? . .

🍦#31FlavorsofBooksJuly Day 21: Chunky Monkey - Complex Worlds ⁣ ⁣ Do you ever reuse photos? ⁣ ⁣ I don’t reuse photos often, but I’m actually obsessed with this Mistborn photo I posted in early June. ⁣So I decided to post it again! ⁣ The Mistborn series by Brandon Sanderson is a perfect choice for today’s “complex worlds” theme. Sanderson is a master storyteller and builds the most incredible, immersive worlds. The world of Mistborn is unlike anything else I’ve ever read. It has unique magic system and a massive world that is still being explored in the sequels! ⁣ ⁣ Mistborn is a series that I always recommend to anyone who likes high fantasy. So go read it!!! ⁣ ⁣ #mistborn #thefinalempire #thewellofascension #theheroofages #brandonsanderson #complexworlds #worldbuilding #booksaremagic #avidreader #alwaysreading⁣ #photochallenge #bookishphotochallenge #talesofanavidreader #bookstagram #booksofinstagram #bookstagrammer #bookblog #bookreviewer #booknerd #booklover #bookworm #instareads https://www.instagram.com/p/CC6AqpLgsL-/?igshid=ik6wc4br0nwm
