WelcomE and

There are days that you know that you are wrong and you know that no one is perfect. March 15th is the unofficial holiday to gently remind everyone that we are all imperfect. To accept that there are many things that we do, are wrong. This day encourages us to spend some time correcting them. Everything You Think is Wrong Day is the perfect day to acknowledge that not everything you know or do is right and that you have a lot to learn about things around you. Whenever you accept you are wrong doesn’t mean that you are weak. It shows that you are strong enough to accept your mistakes. Studies have shown that people who admit their mistakes are usually treated with more respect than those who hesitate to take responsibility for their wrong doings. In other words, making mistakes is not the problem, not taking responsibility or making an effort to fix things is.
