#21 Day Challenge @Day 5 : I Made a Mistake

#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 !!
