Learn by doing
9:42pm Tuesday 27th September 2011 in Blogs
Sometimes it's good to look up
Working with a good partner is better than working alone.
Most cock ups can be fixed.
Some people are snipers; they'll snipe anyway so you might as well get on with it.
Friends are kind, but if you ask them to tell you the truth, they will.
Admitting your fears and ugly traits disempowers them.
The energy surge of an idea you're excited by will carry you a long way.
There will be moments of doubt and "Oh Lord, what was I thinking?"
These moments pass.

"Learn by doing" -- bang on, Karen.
Think about it -- there is NO other way in which it is possible "to learn" ... anything!
In the process, you will make mistakes. Be positive about those mistakes -- because, again, in a very real sense, it is NOT POSSIBLE 'to learn' ANYTHING without 'making mistakes'.
Indeed, the 'learning process' could well be described as "the active process of correcting earlier mistakes".
