the learning process People say that if you want to learn something, you must put yourself out of the comfort zone. Well, this is definitely something scary, but one must face the fact: it's true. Being wrong should be as natural as being right. The later feeds our egos and makes us feel good, and somehow proud of ourselves, but its timespan is short. The former on the other hand has a deep implication, more profound, as it hurts, embarasses us, and may sometimes make us feel stupid. Not surprisingly, this is exactly what we don't want to feel, so we struggle and expend a huge amount of effort trying not to redo the same mistakes ever again. I guess that's how we grow and learn, trying to defend ourselves against.... ourselves.
