A person who never made a mistake never tried anything new."
- Albert Einstein
Just looking at this image of an essay edited with red ink evokes bad
feelings? You are not alone. The entire school system is still very much
focused on mistakes as proof that you haven't learned something instead of
proof that YOU ARE in fact LEARNING. Mistakes are a very natural result of
every human learning process and without them, we wouldn't be able to get
the feedback we need to grow. So, whenever you make a mistake in the
future, take it as a positive sign that you are still on the path of
learning and growing.
