So I had a unique opportunity this week to learn about learning. I was helping out with a construction project at my office. An unfortunate mistake on my part resulted in my breaking the windshield of the bobcat. A powerful reminder came when I told the owner of the bobcat what had happened. He reminded me when mistakes happen it means you are learning. So often when we make a mistake our response is to be uncomfortable and embarrassed and explain it away. This was a great reminder that mistakes are a powerful opportunity to learn.
