How does the way you talk to yourself when you make a mistake differ from how you address others under the same circumstances?
“It is unwise to be too sure of one’s own wisdom. It is healthy to be reminded that the strongest might weaken and the wisest might err.”
― Mahatma Gandhi
What mistake from a hero has surprised or disappointed you?
“I’ll write it in in pencil.” I understand this is a possibility, but we’re not sure. Of course, few things in life really are sure. And sometimes the erasure is a blessing, and sometimes it’s a tragedy.
What uncertainty in your life is keeping your attention these days?
“Nowadays most people die of a sort of creeping common sense, and discover when it is too late that the only things one never regrets are one’s mistakes.”
― Oscar Wilde
