No Pain - No Gain

Founder of IBM, Thomas J Watson, believed that to increase your success rate you need to increase your rate of mistakes. law of nature dictates this in equal measure.

So the faster you make the mistakes the faster you are more likely to succeed.

Now one doesn't mean the other, but it certainly assists and increases the likelihood of success.

It is clear that the most successful companies got there after many changes and mistakes before they got it more right then wrong. Which is basically a formula for success. Do more right things then wrong things and you are more likely to succeed and prosper.

Its the organisations that don't change or that are scared to make mistakes that wither and die.

In the last 9 years of Unique World we have made hundreds of mistakes, but as long as you know where and how, so that you can learn from them and apply those lessons to new things you will succeed. You need to have self awareness and be able to reflect and determine where it went wrong and right.

Stop, pause and reflect - you will be amazed as to what you will learn.

So make the mistakes quickly and learn from them. That's what life is all about isn't it...
