Honesty.
It's that simple. Try to be honest. In what you think, in what you say. Say it as it is.
Be honest. Nothing is harder. This is the battle.
(What you do
in private, what you do in public, that's annother question.)
Accept your mistakes, explain how they came about. Learn.
Don't let cliches or AI speak on your behalf. (Aren't they the same?)
We learn wisdom from failure much more than from success. We often discover what will do, by finding out what will not do; and probably he who never made a mistake never made a discovery.

Sometimes I think, maybe I should use TrueNAS, and then I remembered that their C•Suite decided to give the 
to FreeBSD... the very same operating system and community of developers and engineers who enabled their company to exist from the start, to scale to the level which brought them success and growth and accolades from the OSS and enterprise storage communities alike.
So no, I don't use TrueNAS. Whatever many reasons they and their indolent fanboys push for moving to Linux, and I have heard them all, it's irrelevant. They didn't just bite the hand that feeds, they went straight over to the clown-show makeup meme table and slathered it on; trying so hard to convince everyone including themselves that this betrayal was the Good and Ethical thing to do.
Luckily there are alternatives, and those will get my time, engineering efforts, and fiscal support. One thing to remember: alienated users do not recommend those formerly loved products to their employers, they do not "spread the love" via organic marketing, and perhaps sometimes they dissuade when they would formerly embrace.
The biggest problem of #Trump is that he cannot admit #mistakes. His fight against critics makes him blind for how much #Putin plays him like a #puppet. His way of handling #Selenskyj is just another example of this. The framing of #support for #Ukraine as #left by #Putins #propaganda makes him want to end it without thinking of consequences. And he just doesn't listen. If he really wants to make America great again, he better is no #pussy and steps up against #Putin. #maga

I dug into the report and a few other sources about the neurological and other basis for mistakes, and discovered some fascinating things.
First and foremost, mistakes that are good for you. But they can also be bad for you. Not only that, some people repeat the same bad mistakes over and over again, never learning from those mistakes until some real damage has been done.
Let's dig in - because these can be valuable innovation & leadership lessons. They might also provide some insight into how we found ourselves in this volatile year.
It's pretty clear to countless people that 2025 is the year of the big mistake.
