"Les erreurs sont après tout les fondations de la vérité et si un homme ne sait pas ce qu'est une chose c'est au moins une augmentation de la connaissance s'il sait ce qu'elle n'est pas"
— Carl Jung
Simplified Meaning:
In life, making mistakes helps us learn and grow. When we get something wrong, we understand better what the right way might be. For example, if someone is trying to learn how to bake a cake and they accidentally add too much salt, they learn that too much salt ruins the cake. Next time, they will know to be more careful with the salt. Knowing what doesn't work moves us one step closer to finding what does work. This approach is useful in all aspects of life, from school to work to relationships. It reminds us that getting something wrong is actually part of the learning process and helps us discover the truth.
