RE: The wise are not wise because they make no mistakes. They are wise because they correct them.

  • "It is almost impossible to stand up in front of a person and say You were right, I was wrong, I am sorry, I will try to correct my behaviour/thoughts/actions."
    People accuse others turn a blind eye to the incident, depict a lack of understanding, the conversation is transferred from their shortcomings on the shortcomings of others.
    It's hard to do only the very first time. It looks like - how to overcome himself, his cowardice, an attempt to evade responsibility for their actions and deeds. Some people see this as humiliation. They are wrong. But , even if you perceive it that way, you can force yourself to stoop to rise in their eyes and the eyes of other people.
    Once to fall, then to rise. It's worth it. I remember the feeling of overcoming yourself and admitting their mistakes. When I did it the first time. This state of ease, a victory over oneself . I felt like I climbed another step up. It is a nice feeling. Self-development is impossible without the ability to admit mistakes and the desire to work on them. It is an experience and a step towards personal growth. Thanks for this post.
