“A man who has committed a mistake and doesn’t correct it, is committing another mistake.” — Confucius
“A mistake repeated more than once is a decision.” — Paulo Coelho

“Experience is simply the name we give our mistakes.” — Oscar Wilde
“Make mistakes, just don’t make them permanent.” — James Clear
“Take chances, make mistakes, get messy!” — Ms. Frizzle

“Learn from the mistakes of others. You can never live long enough to make them all yourself.” — Groucho Marx 1

Once is a mistake. Twice is a choice. Three times is a decision.
「知錯」是一種智慧,「糾錯」是一種勇氣,「除錯」則是一連串假設及驗證的過程。
Your goal is not to avoid making mistakes, but to avoid making the same mistake and keep making new mistakes
“The only real mistake is the one from which we learn nothing.” — Henry Ford
A failure is not always a mistake, it may simply be the best one can do under the circumstances. The real mistake is to stop trying. Every single failure is a lesson. It only becomes real failure if you learn nothing from it.
When you make a mistake, recognize it, acknowledge/admit it, learn from it, then let it go (forget it).
