What have you learned from mistakes you make?

Answer 1

My mistakes can be pretty bad at times and more common than I wish. I have learned the come in all shapes and sizes and will always continue as life is about learning. First time you comitted it, it's a mistake. But if you comitted the same mistake again, it's stupidity. The above answers are excellent. If you were to hurt a friend, then know you did it and, instead of phoning them or emailing or IMing, have the guts to face them to apologize and take the risk of losing them for good. If you lie or cheat, own up to it and be responsible for your own actions. On and on the list goes, but I'm sure you get the drift. We all make mistakes and will until the day we die, but it's important we learn something good from each mistake we make. Sometimes we can rectify our mistake and other times we can't and we just have to accept that we can't make that mistake again and get on. so you don't have to remember the lie"

One thing I have learned is that it is better to think first before you do something which may have far-reaching consequences. In several different accidents I have lost parts of fingers.

Answer 2

Over time I have come to realize to not let yourself get so down when you see a mistake you may have made. You should instead recognize your mistakes and see it as a challenge. Work your hardest to fix it. :)

Answer 3

Some people see this as a tricky question as it reveals your weaknesses -- so a suitable answer is something like, "I find that if I spend more time planning projects in more detail at the start, this saves time later." Everyone makes mistakes, of course, but some companies are more willing to learn from them than punish those involved. In fact, there is a slow movement towards developing learning organizations where the culture is designed so that staff can own up to mistakes quickly and improve processes to prevent repeats. You've learned that when you do make mistakes, someone is usually disappointed in the choice you made, but you have to figure it out for yourself, they might help you decide whats right and whats wrong, but you'll be the decider on which you choose. You've learned that people do care about you, and to not do it again if you don't want to.
