By making mistakes and fixing the errors, we learn valuable lessons. These lessons become what we call ‘experience’. Experience morphs into confidence because when we make the same mistake we know what to do to repair it. Experience and confidence become the basis for wisdom. When we are wise enough, we know that we will never know it all and accept our errors from which we continue to learn, become more experienced and confident that we will recognize a mistake, sometimes before we actually make it. And if not, we are wise enough to laugh and put another notch in our belt of experience.
