I try and learn from my mistakes. I used to think it had to do with stupidity that people don't learn from their mistakes. That's what I had been told by my parents and I am sure we have heard the phrase "Smart people learn from their mistakes, stupid people do not." But in My Fun Facts Coach, it said it had to do with the wiring of your brain.

I was taught - and still believe - that learning speed doesn't really
determine if someone is stupid or smart. Only he who doesn't want to learn
(more) doesn't get any smarter. Never said twas easy.
