Monday Morning Match is a quick post – maybe a quote, inspirational story or idea – intended to spark some motivation inside each of you so your week gets off to a fantastic start on Monday morning.
It’s a new year and you’re trying to get it started on the right foot. It’s like you’ve just bought a new car and you swear no one, including you, is going to eat or drink in it. Your new puppy will NOT be allowed on the furniture. You will not have that extra slice of pie.
You start off down the path of 2015 whispering to yourself, “I will not make mistakes. I will not make mistakes. I will not make mistakes.”
This is the year you do everything right.
Lean Into Your Mistakes
Diotisalvi and Pisano were 12th century architects. They messed up. The architects failed, yet their failure is one of the most visited, photographed pieces of architecture in the world.
The Torre di Pisa. The Leaning Tower of Pisa.
You shouldn’t plan on something historical coming from your failures…other than experience. Just remember, history can tell us a lot.
Take it from a Carpenter. Measure twice. Cut once.
