Learn from your mistakes Maybe you are familiar with Who Moved My Cheese?, a story about two mice and two dwarves [dw :fs] try to search a mass for some cheese. This is the same as life. life is like a mass and most of us desire to find something meaningful. Before reaching your destination in the mass, you are likely to lose your way. So what will you do on this occasion? I believe that you will try to remember this mistake and determine not to go back to this wrong road. In reality, we make mistakes; we learn more from our mistakes; we try to remember them and avoid them with more attention.

Take myself as an example. Once a time, I was responsible for the introduction of Antarctica and its geography, resources, typical features, living creatures, history of exploration and even some interesting stories of explorers were all included in my presentation, because I believed that introducing as many as details of Antarctica was conducive to our understanding and even my wonderful presentation. However, I was wrong. Most of my classmate felt puzzled in face with a huge mass of information. And then I realized my mistake, my wrong understanding about a presentation after getting some feedback from my teacher on my work. A presentation needs a focus, just like a conversation, so we can go further and make us understood well. Too many aspects about Antarctica makes audience feel lost and it’s better to focus on the history of exploration and pay more attention on the competition between Roald Amundsen [ ɑ:m nds n,] and Robert Scott['r b t]. At that time, I made a mistake and I learned more than I was that day. To my pleasure, in my following presentation on the intelligence of crows, my teacher appreciated that I fixed on a point well and avoided the same mistake last time.

Learn more from your mistake and become wiser today than yesterday. Lian Po learned from his envy towards Lin Xiangru that one should be lenient [ li:ni nt] , take the whole situation into consideration and cooperate with others to protect their country. Edison learned from his unsuccessful experiences and invented the light. The son of Bill Gates learned to admit his mistake of pouring some milk on the ground and to take his responsibility to clean it. Tryon Edwards also says that the error of the past is the wisdom of the future, so learn from your mistakes, accumulate some beneficial experience and try not to fall down in the same place.
