Your mistakes are data, not a description of you.

REFLECTION

WHAT THIS MEANS

An error is a record of one attempt made with the information you had at the time. Turning it into a character trait adds nothing and removes the part you could have used, because the hours go into feeling bad instead of looking at what actually went wrong. Guilt is heavy and slow. Information is light and available tomorrow.

After the next thing you get wrong, write one sentence about the cause and one about the fix. Then stop on purpose and go do something else. The review is the useful part, and the rest is interest on a debt you do not owe.
