⭐LEARN FROM YOUR MISTAKES⭐

Oscar Wilde famously said that experience is just another name for the mistakes we make. This rings true, as long as we learn from those mistakes. In today's increasingly unpredictable world of constant change, information overload, multiculturalism, and technological disruption, mistakes are inevitable.

Most people dislike making errors, but management expert Tom Peters argues in his book Thriving on Chaos that we can't afford perfectionism. The quickest way to find solutions is through rapid testing, making mistakes, learning, and adjusting. He advocates that we embrace and even celebrate mistakes as opportunities for growth. He thinks we should become "mistake maniacs".

⭐Happy accidents⭐

It's worth remembering that many discoveries and inventions have happened by accident. In the early 1970s, Arthur Fry wanted a bookmark for his church hymnal that wouldn't fall out or damage the pages. His colleague at 3M, Spencer Silver, had developed an adhesive that wasn't strong enough to stick two surfaces together (as planned) but left no residue after removal and allowed items to be repositioned. Fry put some of Silver's adhesive along the edge of a piece of paper. His church hymnal problem was solved, and the Post-it note was invented.

Viagra was originally developed to treat cardio-vascular problems. In testing, it must have become (very) clear that it wasn't just the heart that was affected.

And the famous inventor Thomas Edison made thousands of failed prototypes of his electric light bulb before finally succeeding. When asked why he hadn't given up, he explained that each failure had taught him something he needed to know for the next attempt. Edison was clearly a mistake maniac.

⭐Turn mistakes into experience⭐

1. Accept the mistake

When you make a mistake, admit it as soon as you can first to yourself and then to others. The sooner you accept that a mistake has happened, and take responsibility for it, the sooner you can start learning from it.

2. Analyse and get feedback

Study where you went wrong, so you'll know what to do differently next time. It can help you in identifying solutions to future problems, too. It's helpful to get feedback from trusted colleagues. A mentor can give you advice on how they've managed similar situations.

3. Find the lesson to be learned

Keep a diary. Record your mistake along with your analysis and the feedback you received. Then, make a plan with specific steps to prevent the same mistake from happening again.

Some organizations have online mistake diaries that everyone can contribute to, in which mistakes and their solutions are posted.

4. Check your learning progress

Use a simple learning checklist at regular intervals to help you learn from these experiences.

5. Always be a learner

Develop a learning mindset and be prepared to take some risks. Prioritize where you want to develop, concentrating on one thing at a time. Put time aside for your learning. Share your goals with someone you trust, so they can encourage and support you. A mistake maniac is ultimately a lifelong learner.

⭐Essential phrases⭐

1. Accept the mistake

I'm afraid that was my fault.

My approach to the problem was wrong.

I'm sorry but I messed up there.

2. Analyse and get feedback

Let's see what went wrong in the process.

I think I understand where I made an error.

Where do you think the mistake was made?

3. Find the lesson to be learned

I can see where I need to improve.

I've made an action plan to make sure this doesn't happen again.

I don't intend to make the same mistake twice.

4. Check your learning progress

Have I reached my learning goals?

I carry out a self-check on my progress at regular intervals.

I need to check whether my approach is working.

5. Always be a learner

One step at a time.

Have a look and tell me if

you think these goals are practical.

I've allocated time each week for learning.

⭐My learning checklist⭐

Answer YES or NO:

Have I...

reached the learning goals I wanted to reach by this time?

clarified my learning targets for the next six months?

taken steps to improve how I manage my time for learning?

thought about things I haven't enjoyed doing and/or have not done well and considered how?

I might handle such things in the future?

thought about things I have enjoyed doing and/or have done well?

done anything specific to keep up to date?

concentrated on how to improve in the future?

learned something new about myself?

You know how they say success isn't the end-all, and failure isn't the end of the road?

Well, picture this: tripping over absolutely zilch in front of everyone you know? That's like a crash course in building character right there.

Think about it this way: Life's full of ups and downs, and we learn from both. But those moments where you embarrass yourself?

They're like secret superpower lessons in humility and resilience.

So, imagine taking a tumble for no reason in public. It might feel like a big oopsie, but it's actually a reminder that we're all human.

Plus, it's a great chance to laugh it off and keep on truckin'.

My Biggest Digital Marketing Fail (and What I Learned)

Hey everyone, I'm here to confess my biggest digital marketing blunder. It wasn't a catastrophic data breach, thank goodness, but it definitely taught me a valuable lesson about understanding your audience and staying authentic.

youtube

Here's the story: I was managing the social media for a local bakery known for its delicious, homemade pies. To capture attention and attract new customers, I created a series of highly stylized photos featuring their pies in trendy, minimalist settings. Think sleek marble countertops, perfectly arranged props, and zero crumbs.

I was initially thrilled with the visuals. They were clean, modern, and aesthetically pleasing. However, engagement plummeted. Likes and comments were scarce, and the few comments I received expressed confusion. "Where's the warmth?" one user asked. "This doesn't look like my grandma's pie!" another chimed in.

The truth hit me like a stale croissant. I had gotten so caught up in creating visually trendy content that I completely missed the mark on what truly resonated with my audience. They weren't looking for minimalism, they craved comfort, tradition, and the feeling of home.

So, what did I learn?

Know your audience inside and out: Don't just create content you find appealing, but tailor it to the specific needs and preferences of your target audience.

Authenticity is key: Don't try to be something you're not. Embrace the unique qualities and personality of your brand and let it shine through in your content.

Data is your friend: Track your results closely. If engagement is dropping, don't be afraid to analyze the content and make adjustments.

The outcome? I went back to the drawing board. I focused on capturing the warm, inviting atmosphere of the bakery. I used natural lighting, close-up shots of the pies, and images of happy customers enjoying their treats. Engagement skyrocketed, and the bakery even received positive comments about their "down-to-earth" social media presence.

This experience taught me that the human element is crucial in digital marketing. It's not just about aesthetics; it's about connecting with your audience on an emotional level. So, be true to your brand, understand your audience, and don't be afraid to learn from your mistakes!

What are your biggest digital marketing lessons learned? Share them in the comments!

It is OK to fail. We learn from our failures much more than our successes. Failing DOES NOT mean you're a failure. You are only a failure if you let yourself be defeated and give up. Failing gives us opportunities to learn and grow and change our future and destiny. If we succeeded at everything we did, we would never learn how to do it better. We would never change our lives or the lives of those around us. When you fail, learn from it, dust yourself off and KEEP MOVING FORWARD!

Just because the calendar changes or the clock moves doesn’t mean things will automatically change. Change will happen when you decide to make it happen. When you decide to let go of the things that are holding you back and work towards more self-serving habits and responses. We all have the power to change, we all have the fire… sometimes we just need a spark. Be safe, have fun but be respectful and stay above. 💚🤘🏻. Don’t forget to check out the new book from TPP. Never Underestimate The Power Of You. #celebratelife #beyourbestself #makememories #chooseyourpain #mentalhealthawareness #mentalhealthmatters #mentalillnessawareness #mentalillnessrecovery #healing #canthurtme #focusonyourself #failforward #healthyhabits #mentalhealthpodcast #podcastersofinstagram #podcaster #spreadingawareness #fightingstigma https://www.instagram.com/p/Cm35QuwuKnm/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

As March 13 Spring Forward approaches, let’s as a creative and motivational community Spring Forward our clocks but endeavor to Fail Forward and Fall Forward instead. Listen to this quick 10 minute inspirational speech from The Denzel Washington and see why Failing and Falling Forward is not the permanent curse that it seems: https://open.spotify.com/episode/0NgLUtv5mbbVkgnhanAkET?si=sh68IbYeSEWG-YRAEna4sQ&context=spotify%3Ashow%3A2tEwvc5QB4JbmkwwuYobvf I’m sick of living in my “Fall Back Plans” and in my clutter of endless to-do lists and in the metaphorical graveyard where my “crazy dreams” and “goals for tomorrow” go to die. What have you been putting off achieving or working towards? What goals and dreams are worth investing in? (Friendly reminder: You CAN do anything but you CAN’T do everything.) What calls you forward and what holds you back? What Fall Back Plans hold you back from reaching your potential and changing your world and your community for the better? How are you going to Fall Forward in 2022? Let’s inspire and motivate each other! Comment below & share with friends, family, and likeminded peers! #fallforward #failforward #springforward #springiscoming #springgoals #goals #dreams #inspirational #motivationalquotes #motivation #inspirationalquotes #motivationmonday #motivational #inspiration #visualization #dream #goal #goalgetter #denzelwashington #fail #success #successquotes https://www.instagram.com/p/CbB2DRBMTrs/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
