⭐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⭐
1. Accept the mistake
I'm afraid that was my fault.
My approach to the problem was wrong.
I'm sorry but I messed up there.
2. Analyse and get feedback
Let's see what went wrong in the process.
I think I understand where I made an error.
Where do you think the mistake was made?
3. Find the lesson to be learned
I can see where I need to improve.
I've made an action plan to make sure this doesn't happen again.
I don't intend to make the same mistake twice.
4. Check your learning progress
Have I reached my learning goals?
I carry out a self-check on my progress at regular intervals.
I need to check whether my approach is working.
5. Always be a learner
One step at a time.
Have a look and tell me if
you think these goals are practical.
I've allocated time each week for learning.
⭐My learning checklist⭐
Answer YES or NO:
Have I...
reached the learning goals I wanted to reach by this time?
clarified my learning targets for the next six months?
taken steps to improve how I manage my time for learning?
thought about things I haven't enjoyed doing and/or have not done well and considered how?
I might handle such things in the future?
thought about things I have enjoyed doing and/or have done well?
done anything specific to keep up to date?
concentrated on how to improve in the future?
learned something new about myself?

Spiritual practice implies action; practice is a verb as well as a noun. Sitting around and talking about it is merely philosophy, which is nice, but doesn’t get you anywhere until put into practice.
The best way to make sure you are staying in action is to have things that you can do on a daily basis that center you on your path and help move you forward, things that you do whether you feel like it or not, just to keep the movement going.
Of course, it is important to not be in dogma with your practice, so make sure these are things that mean something to you or that help you feel more centered or that help you to feel connected to the Divine. Some of these could include:
Keeping a dream journal
Writing every morning
Prayer
Chanting
Grounding
Mediation
Affirmations
Stating your intent
Calling the directions
Ritual bath
Checking in with your protection and/or guidance
Stating your intent for the day every morning
Worship with others
Listening to, or even singing along with, a specific piece of music that makes you feel connected
Taking at least five minutes to step outside and breathe, and allow yourself to feel connected to nature
Yoga
Quigong
TaiChi
Other forms of sacred breath or sacred movement
Walking a labyrinth
But there are an infinite number of options. A combination of a few of these will probably work best. Take a few moments each day to try at least one of these and see what resonates for you.

It is spring and the Andrena are flying. As far as I know the 1500+ species in this group all nest in the ground and none of the females can sting you if you pick them up (or is that only American Andrena? Hmmm, that statement seems a bit imperial. I should rather say "or is that only bees of the genus Andrena that occur in continental North America." Clearly, despite its wrongness, there is less typing associated with imperialism). Any way here is a lovely Andrena from Slovakia (A. flavipes) (it probably doesn't sting either, but maybe European Andrena sting...?) collected by Peter Šima along the levee of the Nitra River. Note, however this is not a spring Andrena, but one of the members of Andrena world wide that can be found out and about in the Fall. However, Andrena are far more common in the spring. This post is getting aimless and I am going to stop here before I start telling you stories about the wasp nest boxes I have made over the past 2 days. Photo by Cole Cheng. Id by Jakob Straka.

Working on a new stars bowl... made me happy to work on 💗. It will be green like the second photo, if it fires properly... sometimes this glaze doesn’t always work out, but when it does I win. 💫🪐🌟✨☄️ #dowhatyoulove #lovewhatyoudo #keepmoving #forwardmotion #starpottery #moroccanstar #starbowl #handmadebowl #brownclay (at Twisp, Washington) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_T0QqKjeQk/?igshid=py2k0w2hanv6

Despite being in a precarious, unstable position by standing on the ledge of a garden wall, this release is very near perfect, in my opinion! I had obstacles in front of me obscuring my view to the target and bushes behind me hindering my movement. I had to readjust and stretch my instinctive archery ability even further to get my shot. It's interesting to observe in this awkward position, I released the arrow with a forward motion push. 🏹🏹🏹 Watching this video in normal and slow motion, it's lovely to see how smoothly everything flowed from raising the bow to the final release. I'm also very pleased with how everything came into alignment. I'm also hidden and camouflaged in this video because of the bushes and undergrowth, which also makes great practice for stealth, combat, warrior type archery. Remaining calm and relaxed is an important key to be flexible in the field of traditional, instinctive, intuitive archery. The end result ... a very happy woman archer! :-) . . . . #archer #archery #archeryaddict. #archerylove #archerypassion #archerypractice #bowandarrow #camouflaged #endresult #femalearcher #forwardmotion #instinctivearchery #longbow #naturalbowwoman #pushforward #shootingspot #sportswoman #strongwoman #tradarchery #traditionalarchery #warrioress #warriorwoman #womanarcher https://www.instagram.com/p/B2AhHDuFXS5/?igshid=1x7rcansr1gzw
