Making mistakes isn't enough to become great. You must also admit the mistake, and then learn how to turn that mistake into an advantage.

Robert Kiyosaki

I sometimes react to making a mistake as if I have betrayed myself. My fear of making a mistake seems to be based on the hidden assumption that I am potentially perfect and that if I can just be very careful I will not fall from heaven. But a 'mistake' is a declaration of the way I am, a jolt to the way I intend, a reminder I am not dealing with the facts. When I have listened to my mistakes I have grown.

Hugh Prather

An artist who goes around proclaiming that the art he's making is art is probably making a serious mistake. And that's one mistake I try not to make.

Peter Beard

Shift from being afraid of making a mistake to being afraid of not making a mistake. If you are not making any mistakes, you are not learning or growing

Susan Jeffers

Don't mistake activity with achievement.

John Wooden

Jim Rohn

John Wooden

The biggest mistake you can make in your life is to be always afraid of making a mistake.

Dietrich Bonhoeffer

When you see a mistake in somebody else, try to find if you are making the same mistake.

B.K.S. Iyengar

I'm scared of making the biggest mistake of my life. I'm just trying to figure out what the mistake is.

Lisa Kleypas

The Christians think I am making a mistake by not trying the New Testament and meeting Jesus. The Jews tend to think I am making a mistake by reading without support from educated people. After all, there is 2,000 years of scholarship about the book, they say, so it's perverse of me to ignore it.

David Plotz

The greatest mistake you can make is to fear making a mistake.

John Capozzi

The individual who is mistake-free is also probably sitting around doing nothing. And that is a very big mistake.

John Wooden

After every mistake, we need to understand that we can look back and learn-so that we can move forward with confidence and avoid making the same mistake again.

Zig Ziglar

You made me confess the fears that I have. But I will tell you also what I do not fear. I do not fear to be alone or to be spurned for another or to leave whatever I have to leave. And I am not afraid to make a mistake, even a great mistake, a lifelong mistake and perhaps as long as eternity too.

James Joyce

I think we are making a mistake, a very big mistake if we look at what we call the Arab Awakening only by looking at the whole dynamics in political and not in economic terms.

Tariq Ramadan
