Correcting Mistakes...

Sometimes, it's good that people can correct your mistakes before it becomes rooted into you.

Like today, just what I experience. Shit happens.

It's quite unfair when let's say, you're totally new to something. The first "teacher" you got taught you some things. Naturally you just assumed everything he says is correct and you just follows everything he says... And when you keep doing it over and over again, it naturally becomes part of you, and it becomes the "right thing" to do.

What if, say 2 months later, someone tell you in your face that certain things you've been doing were wrong all the while? It would definitely be quite a shock... Usually the first thing you're expose to (in a new field of knowledge) will be "implanted" into you, and you wouldn't question it.

Anyway, its' definitely good when these errors get spotted by others, and they tell you in time (before something bad happens due the mistakes). The earlier it gets corrected the easier it is to change.
