Listen more than you speak. It’s been said that we were given two ears and one mouth so that we could listen twice as much as we speak.
Make mistakes. Mistakes are a part of life. And really, there are no mistakes; there are only experiences. Experiences provide us with feedback that allows us to make other decisions that lead us towards what we want to accomplish. If we aren’t willing to have experiences, we aren’t going to have a life or a business for that matter. A big ego will often prevent us from having experiences because it perceives that a “mistake” is a bad thing and a sign of failure.
