Smart, successful people are by no means immune to making mistakes;
\nthey simply have the tools in place to learn from their errors.– Travis Bradberry<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Dr. Travis Bradberry believes “emotionally intelligent people embrace mistakes for what they are\u2014great opportunities to learn”, and shares the following 10 mistakes smart people never make twice.<\/strong><\/p>\n

1.Believing in someone or something that\u2019s too good to be true.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Some people are so charismatic and so confident that it can be tempting to follow anything they say. Don\u2019t be na\u00efve!<\/p>\n

2.Doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Albert Einstein said that insanity is doing the same thing and expecting a different result. If you want a different result, you must change your approach.<\/p>\n

3.Failing to delay gratification.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Gratification doesn\u2019t come quickly and hard work comes long before the reward.<\/p>\n

4.Operating without a budget.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Budgets, both professionally and personally, establish discipline, and discipline is the foundation of quality work.<\/p>\n

5.Losing sight of the big picture.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Assess your daily priorities against your goals; are they aligned?<\/p>\n

6.Not doing your homework.<\/strong><\/p>\n

There\u2019s no substitute for hard work and due diligence.<\/p>\n

7.Trying to be someone you\u2019re not.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Happiness and success demand authenticity.<\/p>\n

8.Trying to please everyone.<\/strong><\/p>\n

It\u2019s not possible to please everybody, and trying to please everyone pleases no one.<\/p>\n

9.Playing the victim.<\/strong><\/p>\n

To play the victim, you have to give up your power, and you can\u2019t put a price on that.<\/p>\n

10.Trying to change someone.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The only way that people change is through the desire and wherewithal to change themselves.<\/p>\n

Mistakes are to be learned from and can serve as a reminder of what not to do in the future. Ask yourself: What needs to change to prevent a re-occurrence?<\/p>\n

\n

When you repeat a mistake, it is not a mistake anymore: it is a decision.
