George Bernard ShawSuccess does not consist in never making mistakes but in never making the same one a second time.
About This Quote
Benjamin Franklin once wrote, “Success does not consist in never making mistakes but in never making the same one a second time.” He was saying that for an individual to make a mistake is okay, but to make the same mistake twice is not okay. If you make a mistake and correct it, there is no reason why you cannot make another mistake if you feel confident you can do it right.
