Thought of the day – Learning from mistakes checklist

· Accepting responsibility makes learning possible. · Don’t equate making mistakes with being a mistake. · You can’t change mistakes, but you can choose how to respond to them. · Growth starts when you can see room for improvement. · Work to understand why it happened and what the factors were. · What information could have avoided the mistake? · What small mistakes, in sequence, contributed to the bigger mistake? · Are there alternatives you should have considered but did not? · What kinds of changes are required to avoid making this mistake again? What kinds of change are difficult for you? · How do you think your behavior should/would change in you were in a similar situation again? · Work to understand the mistake until you can make fun of it (or not want to kill others that make fun). · Don’t over-compensate: the next situation won’t be the same as the last.
