Every mistake is (potentially) progress
We learn by making mistakes. As one of my yoga teachers repeatedly reminds her classes – when do we ever get anything right the first time? We are in good company. Even Albert Einstein, responsible for some of the most radical twentieth-century advances in Physics, has been described as making a “tangle of mistakes” in an unforgiving article in Physics Today. If Einstein could blunder that badly while achieving so much and succeeding so well, there is surely hope for the rest of us.
