Some people live and learn while others live and never learn. Mistakes are to be learned
from. The greatest mistake a person can make is to repeat it. Don't assign blame and
make excuses. Don't dwell on it. When you realize your mistake, it is a good idea to
accept it and apologize. Don't defend it. Why? Acceptance disarms the other person.
