Many people SAY they want to learn from mistakes. But few people do more than surface learning. And many quickly learn that the best thing to do with mistakes is cover them up.
That’s a shame because…
“Mistakes are the portals of discovery.”
James Joyce
Discovery sounds cool but by definition, a portal has an “imposing appearance”. And then if it leads to a tunnel or a mine or another dark, scary place full of unknowns…or a bridge and we don’t know what’s on the other side…
Well – it’s just a heck of a lot easier and feels a lot safer to ignore that portal, close it, or just block it off and hide it so no one even knows it’s there.
But if we could muster up the courage to go through it, just think of the knowledge or resources we might discover. And just think how it could boost morale, productivity, and performance.
If only we felt safe enough.
