Mistakes....

Are you making them.

 

Mistakes, we all make them, if you are making the same one more than once then maybe it is time to examine what you are doing. Fundamentally a  mistake is not a bad thing. The risk of doing anything new is that you could fail. If you are not making any mistakes then you are not doing anything new....

Of course there are some mistakes that we regret making. In these cases we just have to be grown up about it and move on. But what if you could do something about it. How far would you go to correct something you know is wrong. A good sign of business is admitting that you have got it wrong and then making the changes. Is there a time limit on this?  I do not think so.

Many of the high street banks are now having to correct mistakes made 6 years ago.  If you discover that you have made a mistake, and still have the chance. I would go back and change it.

    Ultimately what I feel our generation wants to see more of is transparency in business, companies that keep their word and are ethical. Things are changing fast and personally I would rather shop at the Co-op because I know what they stand for or support a company that id trying to make a positive difference in the world. Personally I can't stand Starbucks but respect the fact that they use fairtrade coffee. Isn't it sad that someone had to come up with the term "fairtrade" so that means everything that came before was totally ubfair and exploitative then? I predict with what's happening in America with the Bill Gates Foundation and Warren Buffet giving alot of money to that foundation we are going to see big positive changes, a humanitarian movement that is unparralled so just remember I believe in the paradigm of capitalism the only vote that counts is where you spend yr $ or £ in our case.
