When We are Wrong

It is not easy to admit when we are wrong. I think it's worse to know that we are wrong and still hold our ground. I always try to take correction with the aim of bettering myself and my performance. I don't always agree with the directive given, but unless I have evidence or my conviction is so strong, I follow suit.

I believe it is harder to take correction when you have a leading position. However, there is no shame in it. As you mature, you will know that even your child can tell you that you are wrong. It's funny how easy it is to correct others and yet, we are unable to admit when we are wrong. What's worse is that we are now living in a culture where people are afraid to let us know that we are wrong. So errors become the norm because we are either afraid to speak out or we take joy in seeing the other person looking like a fool.

I've seen situations with utter chaos because people were afraid to lose a friendship/link and because of political affiliations. Correction does not mean reprimand or shame or hurt - it's mean something was not right and needs to be fixed.

As you take your daily journey, look personally at where you can improve and correct issues. Be humble and open to listen so that you can benefit from the advice that you will receive along the way.
