From The Onion:
All of us do or say the wrong thing from time to time. It’s my belief that what matters most is not the mistakes we make in life, but how we choose to respond after we’ve made them. Refusing to acknowledge our errors is easy: We simply presume that we are correct and ignore any facts to the contrary. Admitting we’ve messed up, on the other hand, can be pretty tough. And that’s why I don’t ever do it.
Recognizing that you’re wrong means finding fault with yourself instead of others, which is every bit as awful as it sounds.
