Failure By Design



Learning & Making Mistakes

 

 

Life has a funny way of teaching us.

There’s learning from other’s mistakes.

There’s learning from your own mistakes.

But isn’t the whole point in learning, to keep you from making mistakes?

So, why make mistakes to learn to keep from making mistakes?

Isn’t there a better way?

Sure, learning from others’ mistakes is good for you,

but what about the one who made the mistake?

How does your learning from their mistake help them?

It doesn’t help them. You don’t help them.

So, what? Do you just help yourself?

And just let others worry about themselves?

There are ways we can help each other

with out making mistakes or watching someone

else make a mistake. Aren’t there?

  1. After reading this I would have to say that by learning form others mistakes does help the other person.
    If they see that there mistake tought somone then it does in fact help. They just might not see it all the time.
    Mistakes are a part of learning, it’s the ones who make the same mistakes that never learn.

    I see your point and I totally agree. I was really angry when I wrote this post and I see now that, in more ways than one, I was wrong. Learning to not make mistakes is not the only lesson that there is to learn. We must learn to love, accept, and encourage. There are many things that we must learn and not all of those lessons are taught through our(and others’) mistakes. Some lessons are learned in a good way.
    Such as watching an old couple dance and seeing that they are still in love after all these years. From that we can learn from example. We learn to love unconditionally, and we learn that love for another can be unending.
