“Sometimes when you innovate, you make mistakes. It is best to admit them quickly, and get on with improving your other innovations”. - Steve Jobs


When it comes to growing and developing ourselves, there are two significant pitfalls we need to avoid. First we can’t be afraid to make mistakes. The only folks who have never failed at something, probably haven’t done very much. 


The second pitfall for us to avoid is just as critical. We can’t get so invested in our thoughts, and ideas, and beliefs, and plans that we refuse to admit when we are wrong. Don’t double down on a mistake. 


“If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness.” - 1 John 1:9


The Biblical writer in this case was referring to issues of ethics and morality. However, the principle applies to every area of our lives. We can’t begin to get it right until we admit we are getting it wrong. 


I’m Horace McMillon. This is 60 Seconds of Hope. Peace be with you.
