Daily Lift #359

Be Prepared To Admit Mistakes

Not a single person in the world has ever been totally free of making mistakes. There is no shame in a person's saying, "I made a mistake." But to stubbornly refuse to admit you made a mistake is shameful.

(Pele Yoaitz: taos; Rabbi Pliskin's Gateway to Happiness, p.220)
