When facing a decision that stands a 50/50 chance of being correct, the choice made will be wrong 80% of the time. Rick Coxen

About This Quote

Great leaders are not afraid to make mistakes. In fact, they often fail in the opposite direction from which you expect them to go. When great leaders fail, they don’t give up. Instead, they ask themselves what went wrong and how to fix it.

Great leaders know that a mistake is a good teacher—in fact, a great teacher. Mistakes can tell us what we need to do next time around—whether we will make the right decision or not. They can also teach us lessons that will help us to improve our decisions.
