Have you ever made one mistake twice?

Question

Sakshi Gahlawat · Accepted Answer

Maybe yes.

Divya · Answer

Maybe. yes. Unknowingly.

Answer

Sure! If you make a mistake once, you may fail, realizing it is a mistake, or it was the exact reason for the failure at all. If you have this incident a couple of times, then you make sure it is a mistake, not a coincidence. But jokes aside, I think it is ok to make mistakes, no matter how many times. Just make sure you have the ability to get experience from pain in general.

Hoping that something will work. But over time, everything changes and it is clear where you need to either do and where not.

RDS · Answer

In short Yes. But I would say you never learn same lesson. It’s always different than previous one. I usually follow my guy.

Dogyun Jeong · Answer

@diana_iun Yeah, I agree. I think accepting to make mistakes leads to improving or trying things more in the end. What we need to focus is going further not avoiding mistakes.

Dogyun Jeong · Answer

Yes several times. I think Mistakes are usually related to habits, then it happens several times until improve

oh, definitely. it's not just one, but i've repeated many mistakes. take overcommitting, for instance. i've said yes to too many things, overestimated my bandwidth, and underdelivered, more than once.

you see, we're creatures of habit. sometimes, we need to run into the same wall, again and again, to realize there might be another path. it's not about avoiding mistakes but about learning, adapting, and growing through them.

mistakes aren't the enemy. complacency is. repeating a mistake doesn't mean you're failing, it means you're pushing, experimenting, seeking the edges. overcommitting has taught me valuable lessons in time management, prioritization, and the power of saying no.

so yes, i've made the same mistake twice, thrice even. each time, i've learned, iterated, improved. the path to success is littered with mistakes and that's just part of the adventure. keep making, keep breaking, keep iterating.

Jack Line · Answer

You can never make the same mistake twice because the second time you make it, it's not a mistake, it's a choice. https://www.cryptela.com/en/page...

Fell in love with the same person again after we broke up. And then again. 😂

Indu Thangamuthu · Answer

Oh yes! more than twice too 😛

Answer

I once again put too much trust in an unreliable source for information, reminding me of the timeless lesson that it's always essential to cross-verify facts from multiple credible sources before making important decisions!

Jamayal Tanweer · Answer

Yes, I'd say with my t-shirt business, there were two instances. The first one was when I was in my early teens and thought of launching a cool online store. It did relatively well, but I wasn't well-equipped to handle any business cycles at that time. Later, I decided to give it another try, but unfortunately, it failed again. This time, the production-to-profit ratio didn't align with the amount of time I was investing in the business.

Tomáš Blaťák · Answer

Yes, during hiring in the early stage of our startup. My mistake was that I fully trust to people that I hire and did not consider any test of their knowledge etc. and after that, I had serious struggles with them.
