mistakes are raised

Mistakes were made—the almighty line of every press release, the perfectly crafted set of syllables to let you know someone screwed up without indicating that it was actually anyone’s fault. 

We’re all so wired to avoid making mistakes that we’ve built entire industries around making it look like you never made one. 

Maybe the more we’re ready to shrug our shoulders, say my bad, and move on, the less likely we are to double down?

Pushing our chips all in instead of just admitting we misplayed our cards?

Thank you. Let’s have a great day.
