如果你不介意在追求正确的道路上犯错，你就能学到很多，并能提高你的效率。但如果你无法容忍犯错，你就不会成长，也会使你自己和周围的人很难受，你的工作环境就会充盈着很多流言蜚语和恶语中伤，而不是健康、诚恳的对事实的追寻。

你对正确的渴望不要超过你对事实的追求。杰夫·贝佐斯对这有很好的描述： “你必须愿意接受反复的失败。如果你没有接受失败的意愿，你就要注意，自己不要再去创造了。 ”

If you don’t mind being wrong on the way to being right you’ll learn a lot—and increase your eﬀectiveness. But if you can’t tolerate being wrong, you won’t grow, you’ll make yourself and everyone around you miserable, and your work environment will be marked by petty back-biting and malevolent barbs rather than by a healthy, honest search for truth.

You must not let your need to be right be more important than your need to ﬁnd out what’s true. Jeﬀ Bezos described it well when he said, “You have to have a willingness to repeatedly fail. If you don’t have a willingness to fail, you’re going to have to be very careful not to invent.”
