“If you make a mistake and do not correct it, this is called a mistake.”
— Confucius
Simplified Meaning:
When you make an error, it's human nature; everyone makes mistakes. However, if you realize you made a mistake and choose to ignore it without fixing it, then you are not learning or growing from that error. Imagine you are baking a cake and forget to add sugar. If you notice the cake tastes bad and don't change the recipe next time, you'll keep making bad cakes. On the other hand, if you fix the recipe, your cakes will improve. The idea is to recognize when something goes wrong and take steps to correct it. By addressing and correcting mistakes, you can improve and avoid making the same errors in the future.
