"Only throughmistakes can there be discovery or progress."
I stronglydisagree with the speaker's assertion that we can only make discovery orprogress after we have experienced mistakes. We do learn something new frommistakes, but it's often unnecessary to make mistakes to progress or discover,for we can obtain that information through the predecessors' experience. Andmore often than not, solely mistakes cannot ensure our improvement.
In many cases, wecan seek the knowledge from the predecessors and our peers' experience. Thus itwould be unnecessary to experiment mistakes intentionally to progress or discover.The vast stores of books, well-collect in local and national libraries, is theedification our forefathers left to prevent ourselves from unnecessarymistakes. Frequently, our education set its first step in listening to ourparental instruction. And from elementary school to college, we are enrichingour knowledge reserve by extracting it both from the tutors and the authors.Thus is the original intention that to provide us with a platform. With that,we can keep out of many dispensable errors and cut short the way of progressing.
Admittedly, tofurther broaden the field that the pathfinders have lay foundation, we must trytrial and error, in which mistakes are inevitable. Considering that people arealways confined to his time, questions should not be begrudged to theirfindings. On the way to our discoveries, what we should always bear in mind isour intention, which directs our road. It is the objective that helps us guardagainst deviation. Albeit as progressing we will unavoidably encountered withmistakes and setbacks, but the failure itself cannot help us progress. Onlywhen we challenge the difficulty, and rise up to face it can we make our wayfor success, surely under the guide of our intention.
As discussedabove, sometimes mistakes do impel us to progress or discover, but mistakesdoesn't lead us to the destination naturally. Solely mistakes cannot ensuresuccess. We need to decompose, analyze and synthesize them, apprehend thederivation of them, and then learn from them. Therefore we can say without exaggeratingthat it is the inspection we take that really matter. Just cite a dancelearner, when he try to learn a new dance step, he makes many mistakes atfirst. Through observing the analytical action of the dancing instructor, heimproves - the heads, necks, chest, belly, hip, buttocks, thigh, shank, foot -one by one, he correct the mistakes and masters the step. Without the closelyand painstaking observation, without the conquer of each small mistake, he canonly dance rigidly.
Above all, throughlearning the experience of the others, we shorten the way to progress. Whilefor further improving, we need to explore the unknowing or challenge the pastauthority, which anticipate a hard way that will inevitably encountered withmistakes. While the way to progress is not one to only pile mistakes, but oneto learn and improve.
