Shame often causes me to hide my mistakes from others. But really, when I make a mistake, I should make it loud and clear, so I can see that it didn’t work as a strategy, and be able to make a course correction, either by myself or with the help of others. Sharon Weil
About This Quote

The idea that you should “make mistakes as loud as possible” is quite controversial. If you make a mistake, it may be embarrassing; however, if you hide those mistakes from others, you don’t learn from them and could continue to make the same mistake again. Self-admonitions based on mistakes are a good thing. If you want to learn about a course of action or a habit, showing others what you do is a quick way to get instant feedback.
