Maybe anyone has made mistakes,sometimes you may lose your reputation,money,even jobs because of your mistakes,under these circumstances,do you dare to admit mistakes you made or just shift off them?

yes i do some time but not every time. i think the man is going very selfish gradually. they dont care if you are a true person. if you are honest. they will care about you only if you are able to make money for them if you are not then you are nothing.
this is my experience. but still i try to be honest upto the level i can.

well i will be honest here... i am a very weak person when it comes to mistake. i can stand a guilty feeling thats why i always come out and admit my mistakes and appologise at once, ican't stand myself feeling guilty if i keep this feeling everything around me strats falling apart. i'm not good in hiding on this things. my mom actually says its her fault cause ever since young she has trained me to be always honest and admit to my mistakes. it has actually became my flaw.

I agree. It is difficult to accept mistakes, it is not easy to admit we made a mistake especially if we are used to being successful in almost every aspect of our lives, right? But it takes courage, and once you realize you made a mistake and admitted it, it makes you even stronger and you won't or haven't lost anything, and still you gained experience

Hello shally_hh. I am not afraid of admitting mistakes I have ever made. On the contrary, I think that it is a good virtue and a brave act for one to admit mistakes because it helps make some improvement all the more. One who does not dare to admit mistakes have more chances to make more mistakes in the long run, I guess.

Admitting a mistake is actually a brave act. At school they teach first graders to admit mistake so as not to commit another mistake. That's what my 6 yr old daughter said. Makes sense, huh?

Ya,it is more terrible that we can't admit mistakes than the mistakes themslves,to avoid making a same mistake,the best way is admitting it bravely and finding ways to solve it.
