Einstein's biggest mistake was not investing in a bottle of L.A. Looks.

Naw, then you wouldn't have this iconic photo.

In these stressful days of poor government and wars killing thousands we should try to concentrate on positive things.
WWJD...

For those of you not raised in a christian home. The meaning is :
What would jesus drive?

Yeah, but now you're getting into religion. Those not raised in a Christian home wouldn't care what he drives.

Reminds me of a religious joke where the street preachers would shout at the heathens to bring out their bibles and they'd reply that they're heathens, they don't have bibles.
 
I like making mistakes as that’s when learning kicks in. Anyone good at something has had to make mistakes to get there. What Eistein is talking about imo is magnifying someone’s small or one mistake and trying to build a narrative around it to disparage the person. Sound like how it is today? Yes it does, and it’s what children do out on the playground.

Well said.
Years ago I was asked to learn a new set of programming languages to focus on custom, large scale business development. Of course databases were part. They brought on a consultant to work with me; I hated him and the idea. I learned so much from him. Rather than focus on my shortcommings, he encouraged me to go further than I believed possible. One day, before staff, he demonstrated proper techniques using one of my applications! I was blown away he would pick my code...
The result? Well, let's just say I owe him a lot.
