It’s good to make mistakes.That is not a typo，folks，and I have not lost my mind.It is good to make mistakes，and here is why.

First of all，mistakes are a clear sign that you are trying new things.It’s always good to try new things because when you are trying new things you are growing.If you never try anything new how can you improve？How can you expand？How can youinnovate？The simple answer is，“You cannot.”Look around you.With very few exceptions，either everything you see in your physical world or every single detail of every single thing is the result of someone trying something new.

Another good thing about mistakes is this：when you are making mistakes，you are learning.Consider this：Edison failed 10，000times before he perfected the light bulb.When asked how he felt to fail that many times，he remarked that he hadn’t failed 10，000times，but rather had learned 10，000 things that didn’t work.

Finally，when you make a mistake you are that much close to success.Why？

Because when all is said and done，you will have tried some finite number of things before you succeeded.Every time you made a mistake youeliminated one of those things and are one step closer.

But this all doesn’t mean that you should forge ahead with disregard for the consequences of a mistake.Quite the contrary，when you try something new you have to be willing to set some reasonable limits so that，in the event that it doesn’t work out the way you want it to，you will be in a position to try again.

We all have limited resources in the form of time and money，so don’t blow them all on one approach to a problem.Realize that it probably won’t be perfect the first time and allocate those resources appropriately so you can learn，modify，and try it again.Only be embracing and using your mistakes in this way can you make significant advances in your business and your career.

There is an old axiomthat goes，“If you’re not making mistakes，you are not trying hard enough.”

So go forth and make mistakes.And learn.And grow and prosper.

犯错误是有益处的。诸位，并不是我把字打错了，我的脑子还没有那么糊涂。之所以说犯错误是有益处的，原因有以下几点。

首先，错误清楚地表明你正在尝试新事物。尝试新事物总是好的，因为你会在这一过程中成长。如果从不尝试任何新事物，你怎么能进步？如何能发展？又何以创新？答案很简单：“你不能。”看看四周，几乎无一例外，你在客观世界看到的每一件事或是每一件事的每一个细节都是尝试新事物的人们做出的成果。

犯错的另一个好处是：犯错的过程也正是你学习的过程。想想看，爱迪生在完善电灯泡前失败了一万次。当被问到失败那么多次感觉如何时，爱迪生说自己并没有失败一万次，而是熟悉了一万次并不奏效的事物。

最后一点，犯错之时正是你更为接近成功之日。这是为什么呢？

因为在成功前，该说的说了，该做的做了，你还需要尝试的次数是有限的。每犯一次错误，那些所要做的尝试就会减少一个，从而你离成功也就更近一步。

但所有这些并不意味着你就该一个劲地往前冲，而不用考虑每一个错误的后果。恰恰相反，在尝试新事物时，你得主动设定一些合理的限度，以防当所做的尝试没有按照你预想的方式进行时，你能够再试一下。

在时间和金钱方面，我们的资源都是有限的，所以不要把所有的时间和金钱都投入到一个问题的解决途径上。要明白，第一次可能不会尽善尽美，要合理分配这些资源，这样你就能够学习、改进并且再次尝试。只有以这种方式欣然接受并利用你的错误，你才能在事业和职业上取得重大进步。

有句古语说道：“如果你没犯错误，就说明你没有尽力在尝试。”

所以，勇往直前，去犯错误吧。学习、成长，最后成功。
