The author, Bruce Barton, shared in one of his books an experience he had as a young man on his first job. He and his boss had a disagreement one day. Barton expressed what he knew to be true, but his boss exercised his authority and overruled him.
Barton lived in a room at the YMCA at the time and his boss lived in a mansion with ten servants. Early the next morning, while he was at home getting ready for work, he was very surprised to receive a phone call from his boss. He simply told him that he had thought about their discussion and realized that Barton was right and he was wrong.
After many years of experience in business and politics, he realized that people fall into one of two classes. One class is those who try to rationalize their mistakes because they feel they lower themselves by admitting they made one. The other class is those who come right out and admit the facts.
We all make mistakes. We are human. There is no shame in error. The vulnerability to admit when you are wrong displays a strength of character.
Which class do you fall in? Go ahead. Make any needed changes so you can live . . your life to the fullest.
