Mistakes are Valuable Teachers

Produced - 2019

We will learn why we fear making a mistake. We will learn the benefit of making a mistake. We will learn techniques to handle mistakes. As children, we were taught to distinguish right from wrong and to get the answer right. To be right was so important that, when wrong, our first reactions were to deny it, get defensive, blame others, or internalize it. As adults, it is no wonder why so many people fear making mistakes - even to the point of viewing failure as permanent and success as temporary. Now is the time to etch this phrase into our minds "trial and error learning."
