Topic: When you make mistakes, do not fail to take corrections. (Read 574 times)

Mistakes are inevitable of which any one can be a victim of  such circumstances, we are all imperfect that are only working towards perfection, while not accepting corrections at a mistake will only retard such person by not given up on the he opportunity of learning a new thing, it is very wrong to be self centered and failing to admit a mistake and as well learn from it. Mistakes are abound to happen and learning never ends and any one can make mistake and any one can also make corrections, that is my humble opinion as this regards.

Nobody knows it all and nobody is perfect, mistakes are part of learning.  We make mistakes to be corrected to know better, that is why as humans it is good to never be shy of our mistakes or feel bad when we are corrected by people who know better. People that are ready to take corrections learn fast and do exploit. One thing about mistakes, when is ready to always take responsibility of every mistakes that person will never remain the same by being ignorant.  But when one is trying to cover up mistakes and to claim with confidence as if it is the right thing , the person will keep on making mistakes.

In life everyday we learn, this is to tell that know one knows it all and for sure mistakes will always take place and one should be ready to learn from mistakes because if mistakes are taking for granted it will keep on repeating and one will just remain at the same level of understanding.

When one fails to take corrections when mistakes are already been made, this person is not Ready to get improve. this is because, the earlier we realize that no one is perfect, the better it is. And if know that nobody is hundred percent efficient, then, you can easily accommodate any kind correction when you make mistakes. yes! mistake has no master. You can be making mistakes frequently, but when you are not so proud of yourself and accept correction, then, you are ready to learn and you have opened a very wide door for your dreams. By taking correction today one day you will also be able to correct others because you have undergone the stage.
Today you are a student, tomorrow you might become a teacher. there's no big deal there. that's how life works.

Accepting correction after making mistakes, is a great wisdom and one of the unique characteristics of a mature person. A mature person that is ready to improve himself mostly looks for who will even correct him when he or she is doing something. And after being corrected, he accepts the correction without a second thought. Because of this maturity in him, he already has the knowledge of imperfection attributes that everyone possesses. So that would lead him to accept it once and for all.
That would even make him more mature in the eyes of the correctors.
Once more, if you want to correct someone, I think there are certain factors that need to be considered. Some of these factors are;
1. Try as much as possible to have it at the back of your mind that nobody is above mistakes. This is because sometimes some body will make mistake that you might not even expect from someone like him. Because this person is a human being, taken it that any kind of mistake can be made. even you the corrector can make such silly mistake. If you know of this it can make you to correct him with pity and it will make you to correct him by using good and mature words that would help him to accept the correction.
2. Have the knowledge of his condition. when someone make mistake and you know that this person doesn't do this kind of things but now he has make this mistake, try and know what happened. May be he is not in a good mood. If that is the case, try and settle his mind first. Guide him, counsel him and if possible preach him. Then, correct him.
3. Make sure you have the knowledge of the mistake and possible correction as well. when you don't have the knowledge of something and you claim to be making correction, you might also be making the worst mistake.

Well said mate, as long as this forum is consign as a newbie we are ment to take corrections from our senior men when we are not doing the right thing because taking corrections we really help us to learn more consigning the forum, However as a newbie we should no felt bad when our post is being criticism by our high rank members because as someone who is leaning for you to acquire knowledge and grow you really need to take corrections to enable you to understand when you are rong or right.

I agree with you, no human is 100% perfect it's just our nature as humans and I believe that  it's because of our imperfection that we try to be perfect thereby taking corrections when we make errors. It's only an unserious person that would fail to try out new things because they're scared of making mistakes, i wonder how such people intend to learn in life.

 Talking about being successful, according to history most geniuses who became successful in the history book made several errors but they didn't give up but kept trying until they became successful, for instance Michael Faraday who was the investor electricity tried numerous times before he became successful if he had given up or stopped trying how would he had discovered that?

 Today he's being recorded in the history books for his success, now that's how those who gave up and left the forum would had been, maybe if they had been patience enough and disregard the criticism or rather learn from it, who knows maybe they might have been one of the most successful forum members in the future, but funny how lack of patience and tolerance made them miss out from the opportunities the forum has to offer. People should understand that sometimes the best lesson is learnt from one's mistakes so when you make mistakes taking corrections should be the next step.

Mistake is a normal thing for all human being. We are to learn from our mistake. No matter how perfect you are, you will still surely make mistakes. Alot of people have delay their success in life because they are scared they may make mistake or fail if they make a trial. Some people have left the forum just because they are being corrected. This is very bad for such users. The more you make mistakes and accept corrections, the more you succeed in  your daily activities.

If it keeps repeating, it's not natural. But I think this forum is very good, if something goes wrong then many users are ready to correct. Although with a different style. If it's a new member, then sometimes it's like harsh words that discourage you. That's what I've experienced. So when I am corrected then I must really know the error and how I corrected it to still be able to participate in this forum. But don't be afraid everyone is very capable, we just need to keep learning.

It is natural for humans to make mistakes in something they have just learned, everyone has made mistakes, but only people who are willing to learn from mistakes are able to develop themselves. One of the most interesting phenomena in this forum is that when you make a mistake, other members will immediately Corrections your mistake.
You must be prepared for these corrections in order to speed up your development and increase your knowledge while on the forum. Change your perspective after making mistakes and be open to receiving correction and criticism from other members. The mistakes you make can lead to a better direction because there will be other members who are always ready to teach you valuable lessons.

As earlier said, we're humans who're liable of making mistakes and as you have quoted on your Spanish translation, only wise men makes mistakes and seek forward of rectification.
Actually failure to accept that we failed and staying ignorant to fix our errors is assume that we as humans are actually the ones who failed but when we see it that failure is not for us and strives on how to make difference out of It is there by assumed that we ain't the one who actually failed hence we're ready and fearless to take correction of where we had failed.

It's wise enough to be conscious with what we do so that we can always be on the right track but living with the fear to fail would always bring us back from our possessions.

op you are very right, there is no correction without mistakes, which invariably implies that there is no success without failure so the ability to take corrections is also part of the learning process because mistakes brings us closer to taking a new decision, writing our wrongs , and also retracing our missteps.
however, just like the op said whenever you make mistakes try and accept it and take the necessary corrections because it will add positively to your knowledge and do not go about arguing with those that know more than you while you are trying to prove an unnecessary point. in addition, criticism is a process of learning , don't feel that you know everything, always be open to taking corrections because correction is a solid foundation for effective learning process.
lastly for my fellow newbies let us try as much as possible to wear the Armour of endurance in taking corrections especially from our senior  colleagues here in the forum because they know more than us when it comes to the things being discussed here in the forum, let us try and keep our pride aside and focus more on learning new things and taking neccessary measures in taking corrections because no human being is perfect.

You are saying the truth but try and improve in your writing and choice of words. Anyone who wants to learn, improve, grow etc in this world must bring him/herself down because there are people in that place you are planning to enter so they need to correct, mold and discipline you so that you don't carry your former behavior there and sometimes it will looks like they are doing you bad but no, when you listen to them later you will have all the course to thank them.

From my opinion, not just newbies but everyone can actually learn from some else mistake or correction. This is just normal as we learn always, I asked a question for example and I get a lot of replies I'm actually learning something new with a benefit attached but the surprising thing is learning never end in essences navigating through the forum can also build your knowledge, during this process you'll find yourself escaping from different mistakes cause you now have a little knowledge. Taking correction is totally different from teaching others cause I get people teach more rather than accepting their mistake. Note a person must accept the fact they made a mistake before giving corrections or else you'll end up in an argument, as seen here and other occasions people try to speak rudely but I don't blame this category of people cause not everyone will speak the same as expected and we should not expect this from everyone, aside the forum we don't even know ourselves so it's a good idea if everyone will learn to accept their mistake and learn

You are not a newbie anymore in the forum. You are not a jnr member rank, which I believe you have already get aquinted with everything in the forum. Many newcomers make mistake though is not only newbies that makes mistake, everyone can mistake regardless of one’s rank. Because here is a learning community and we can’t be good 100%. But some newbies make errors that need to be corrected, is just that some of them are not ready to take correcting from the high rank members, they think they are been criticized for doing the best thing.


You are right. Someone must be sure of what they write before proving whether it is right or wrong, although it is right the way some newbies get criticize is the way some of the high rank members approach their threads or reply, for me I think it will be good if we talk to them in a way they will easily understand, we don’t have say what they write is useless or some harsh words that will make them feel bad, I think it may discourage them from learning and can even make continue making mistakes.

In general, we all create errors and mistakes here as no one is said to be perfect. But as long as you’re willing to accept corrections for that, that goes to show that you really want to take the process of learning normally. Note that all who have been successful in the forum have their fair share of mistakes and losses at first, but the thing is they never give up but instead see those things in a positive way. That should serve as a lesson most particularly for the newbies in the forum, that mistakes are normal but they should be corrected in the learning process.

Yeah any body who wants to become like others members that are in high rank today most actually fellow what the elders said, who ever don't want to take corrections from the mistake he make at the back will never lean. And that's why is happen to most of new members that introduce themselves into this forum if they make some errors and those that been in this forum for a while are try to correct them they will not listen some will be even panic that they're trying to criticize him which not like that.  Nobody is above mistake everyone is making a mistake both newbies and those that are in system for long periods of time is just that he passed each other, any body who always accepts the mistake they at the back and also listen for people's that are try to correct them their always improving with so much leaning and understand.
This issues of quoting or posting in wrong board is the first of the problem I face when I was newbie , expecially when i came to quote defference members in one thread I mostly find it so difficult to quote the two to three. But one day I fine solutions for myself by creating a thread about how I find the quoting so hard and how to navigate the some of the parts in this forum. And I received many links and the guidelines from defferences of members who have experienced every part in this forum and I take the corrections and learn many things from the mistake I made earlier, its good to be obey and listen to anyone who wants educated us about what we don't know since we don't which one can definitely work for us in future.

That's a certainty, failure and mistakes are two things that every human being often faces, whether in the real world or on Bitcointalk, Overall, people who are optimistic and want to succeed always correct or improve what they have done, whether intentionally or unintentionally.

I'm sure the members in this forum have eaten a lot of salt, so they are very optimistic in correcting themselves, whether it's in trading, gambling, investment and other things related to themselves and this forum, by correcting ourselves so that we can be better in the future and can achieve what we should want to achieve.

Point: after being corrected, don't forget to correct yourself and improve yourself.

Here most people go against the OP's recommendation people not only ignore the learnings after the failure even mostly people just take exit from what they were doing, learning, or experiencing in their domain. 99 Failures can be converted into a success which will be > than the 99 failures and this is how lives goes on every step when you fail you reshape your ambitions and your skills, and that is the process of true evolution.

Most people don't understand this. Sometimes, too, some opinions are not given as opinions; there are some aggressive opinions, which sometimes come off as a direct insult rather than a correction to someone who has made a mistake.
 
The pattern we use to correct and share our own ideas about a particular issue will determine how the person we are directing that talk to will take it.

Sometimes we might be trying to enlighten someone with knowledge of what they don't know, but the approach we use might make it appear as an insult to them, and they will end up feeling humiliated instead of learning from it.

Its good that someone will correct us since that means there's something wrong with the statement we give publicly that's why instead of hating those person trying to correct us then we should appreciate them since they spend some time to correct our mistake and make us correct our statement so that it can help us to grow more.
Since sometimes we are just over confident that we are right but we forget to check that not every statement we post is correct that's why so good to have people step up so they can help us provide some quality statement that can really help those other people who's seeking real information and will not mislead them on something not good to them.

That is just an opinion, it can be wrong to others or may not but we never argue if someone quoted us wrong or gives some corrections. Because they also have some valid reason to say it was wrong, we need to accept their opinion as well and think if maybe they are right.

Generally, the forum consists of mixed opinions. In fact, you have said that no one knows at all, that is why we don't need to pretend that we know everything and always prove that we are right. Sometimes we need to accept that we are wrong even if we think our opinion is right. Yes, there are intelligent people but that doesn't mean they are always correct, they will also commit mistakes and errors.
