Listen "#21 Day Challenge @Day 5 : I Made a Mistake"
Episode Synopsis
#21DayChallenge - Day 5 👇
"I made a #mistake", why is it so #hard to say ?
Because they #clash with our #selfimage and make us feel #guilty or uneasy.
This phenomenon in human behaviour is called as #cognitive #dissonance which means our brains struggles to reconcile conflicting #ideas or #actions.
The book "Mistakes were made (But not by me) authored by Carrol and Eliot, explores this concept in depth.
I am simplifying it for you in just 5 letters which is A B C D and E :
If you don't accept your mistakes, you'll
A = Avoid taking responsibility
B = Blame others
C = Come out of the situation
D = it will Dip
E = End with guilt and regret
Whereas, if you accept your mistakes, you will :
A = Acknowledge your error
B = Begin to introspect
C = Cultivate self-awareness
D = Drive yourself
E = Excellence
Now it's up to you, which way of the alphabets you want to look at and thrive in 2025 !
All the best !!
