It is very difficult for people to admit there mistakes. but as the saying goes, making a mistakeis not a mistake, the mistake is repeating the mistake. How do we handle correction and this depend entirely on our perception to the mistake we made. We all need to make correction in life. The question is are the type that makes and admit the mistake, or the type that make and blame others.

It depends on what you call a mistake. You may think a bad decision is a mistake, or you can see it as a decision that led on to something unexpected. I don't regret any of my decisions, because I welcome any experience that teaches me what works well and what does not, and I will avoid repeating a mistake when I know the consequences. I will never blame anyone else for my errors of judgement, because I make my own decisions, right or wrong, good or bad, however they turn out. Only I can be responsible for my own actions and I can learn a lot from my own experiences.

To me a mistake is something that bring bad consequences from your decision, or a negative result from your action. I don't what you would consider a mistake on your part

actually, it's true that admitting to a mistake is very awkward and not at all easy. but it would be a really bad move if you found the mistake and didn't immediately work on correcting it. it could lead to big problems when the mistake is found by others. and if it is not in your power to correct it, the make sure you let all those people know, who are in any way involved, so that they may be forewarned of the consequences. there are many mistakes waiting to happen. some are big and some are small. and everybody is going to make them. we are humans, after all. the real question is, is it better to make many small mistakes, or one big mistake? or how many times is it ok to make mistakes? happy My Lotting

I always want to admit to people especially to my family if I made mistakes with them for I do hate people that would blamed their mistakes to other people it is an act of cowardness.....for I always believe that very failure in our way is the best experience in life and we learned more than we knew.
