“But what if I make a
mistake?' Will asked.
Gilan threw back his head and
laughed. 'A mistake? One mistake? You should be so lucky.
You'll make dozens! I made four or five on my first day
alone!
Of course you'll make mistakes. Just don't make any of them
twice.
If you do mess things up, don't try to hide it. Don't try
to rationalize it.
Recognize it and admit it and learn from it. We never stop
learning, none of us.”
