You don't have to count the mistakes you don't know about, right? And there is a potentially toxic teaching style with this. If you point out every flaw, if nothing can ever be good or good enough, the student conditions at a very deep level that the safest strategy is to do nothing." <br /><br />Shiiiiiiit.<br /><br />I think that this can be true even without a concern for perfection of form. Can apply to anything where you're trying to "do it right" or replicate exactly what you were taught to do.<br /><br />Semi-beered lightbulb moment for me. Good summary of the issue.

Stated & is that the real reason/goal?<br /><br />Who get's to determine what "well" means and what a "mistake" is; a teacher/expert/boss (external), you (internal) or a combination of both?<br /><br />Perception, how you are looking at the situation is how we frame our questions. How we frame our questions, can limit or lead us to an answer. Take the question, Is the glass half emty or half full, implies one of two choices is correct.<br /><br />Edward de Bone, "Six Thinking Hats" would describe thinking positively or looking for the positive as thinking with your "Yellow Hat" on and thinking negatively or looking for the negative as thinking with your "Black Hat" on. A "Green Hat" (creative/lateral) thinker might ask, "Is the glass the right sizes?" It must must be said, all hats have their place and can be taken on or off.<br /><br />Are mistakes necessarily negative?
