The biggest mistake that was made on my part was when I sent off mailings to an incorrect address. I was new at my job and the industry, and I was easily intimidated. I felt that if I asked questions I would be assumed to be ignorant, so I just guessed and due to that it caused me to make a mistake. Now that I am more experienced and mature, I feel that there is no such thing as an incorrect question and communication is very crucial to avoid mistakes and execute a job to the employer's satisfaction.

For me the important point is to learn from such mistakes and avoid them in future. Being humans everyone did some mistakes either intentionaly or un-intentionally. So be vigilant, avoid them and learn from them. It useless to cry over split milk.

There is a big difference between making a mistake--we all are guilty of that--and doing something wrong.

Most people don't intentionally go around making mistakes. The important thing is to admit it when you've made one, learn from it, and move on.

It is human nature to forgive, provided you are truthful and accept full responsibility for your actions. Look them in the eye, be straightforward, and brief.

If you openly admit to a mistake and have grown from it, you will be viewed positively, and as someone with integrity and character.

When we hurt someone,and its overcome due to misunderstanding 

The biggest mistake I've done in my life was, letting the opportunities passed by. I was a failure then when it comes to practical decisions, most of the time I consult a friend to help me decide, but they're not always with you anyways, so I learn how to make decisions, myself. And started working on it, for so in the nearer future, I can do it myself, and I'll never fail again.
