Actors, journalists, cooks, table dancers... busy people who rarely have time to take a walk in the country join Nick Knowles for a new series discovering the history that lies under our feet in the Meridian region. In Walk Over History, Nick goes armed with a compass and Ordnance Survey Pathfinder map to lead unlikely fellow walkers on voyages of discovery along byways of the South. "These are fun walks with some fun characters," says Nick. "We're trying to encourage people to get out into the country, but the last thing we want to do is preach. The series is not a history lesson, it's just three people having a good time and picking up some interesting stories as they go."
This film was first broadcast: 01 Sep 1998

Frequently Asked Questions
What do our mistakes teach us?
Don't be too concerned about making a mistake. It's an opportunity to learn. It will teach you something. But more importantly, when you make a mistake, you can change it. You shouldn't stress about the small details. We all make them.
While it's possible to feel embarrassed when you make a mistake, it doesn’t necessarily mean that you should feel bad. It's the way you deal with your mistakes which matters most. If you let them bother you, they'll eat away at you inside. You'll be stronger if you see them as opportunities to grow.
Acknowledge and move past a mistake is the best way for you to overcome it. You don't need to dwell on it. Instead, you should focus on the next step. Keep moving.
You don't need to dwell on your errors. Instead, learn from your mistakes and look for ways you can improve. Learn from your mistakes, and you will be a better person tomorrow.
Successful Inventions made by accident
Inventors make mistakes. How we deal with those mistakes is what determines whether our inventions succeed or fail.
Invention is not an accident. Every invention was planned. There is no such thing as an accidental invention.
A deliberate act of invention is called an invention. A deliberate decision to create something new. It solves a problem. A solution that improves the quality of life.
To be successful inventing is to understand that nothing happens by chance. So, instead of avoiding mistakes, focus on learning from them.
Although it would be nice to think that invention is easy, it's not. Invention requires hard work and persistence. It's not a quick fix. It takes time.
That means that you will have to spend much time thinking about issues and new ideas. What do people care about? What do they require?
Ask yourself these questions. These questions will help to determine the type of product and service that you should be developing next.
To achieve this, it is important to forget about any preconceived ideas. Any assumptions about what the world wants or needs. You must listen to your customers and potential clients.
It is important to find out what your clients want. It is not what they think they want.
Once you have identified what they want, the next step is to design a way that you can give it to them. This is where invention begins.
Do we have to learn history in order to avoid making the same mistakes as before?
History repeats itself because we keep making similar mistakes over and again. We fail to learn from our mistakes. We don't change. We become complacent. We settle to mediocrity.
History repeats itself because we believe the same old stories. We are conditioned to believe in immutable truths and immutable rules. We cannot change them.
This keeps us from being able to think critically. From challenging authority. From challenging assumptions. And when we don't question, we don't grow. We stagnate if we don’t move forward. When we stagnate we make the same mistakes again and again.
However, history does not repeat itself because we keep making the same mistakes. History repeats itself because we don't learn from our errors and keep making the same mistakes.
It is possible to break the cycle of history repetition. You can change the way you see the world, and your perspective by realizing that nothing is fixed in stone. Nothing is unchangeable. All things are in constant flux.
Uncertainty is key to breaking the cycle. To accept that things could go wrong. To accept the possibility of failure. Accepting failure as a possibility.
Accept that you may not reach your goals. Acceptance is a part of learning, but it's important to continue improving.
You will always remain stuck in the past if you hold on to certainty. If you hold on to the belief that there are certain truths, you'll never be able to move forward.
If you want freedom, you have to let go. If you want progress, you need to let go of control.
What are some lessons from history?
There are three lessons we've learned from history. First, it is up to you to make a difference in the world. The second is to ensure that people are ready to accept change in their lives. Third, you can't change the past without changing the future.
The first lesson we can learn is that there are only two ways to transform the world. One is to fight to get it. The other is to create. Fighting for it is about winning, not remembering why you started fighting.
You cannot control what people think, but you can make sure they like the way you present them. You'll inevitably fail if you set out to convince someone of something. If you want to inspire others to act, you will succeed.
Great movements were born out of an idea that was realized and then taken action. It doesn't matter if you're trying to create change or react to it. These are the rules that will help you make an impact.
The second lesson is that we all have a choice. We can either wait for our lives to happen to us, or we can choose to make them happen. This means we must decide what kind of life we want to lead. Do we expect someone else to let us live? Or, do we want control of our destiny and take control?
I believe we are living in a golden era. There's more opportunity than ever before, creating a lot of excitement. It's exciting that people feel empowered and able to create their futures.
It can also cause problems. It's not easy to know what you want or how to get it. Therefore, it is important to identify what you want and then find a way.
For example, let's say you want to buy a house. Or you could just sit back and wait for someone to give you a gift card to Home Depot. Or, you can ask yourself, "What do I love to be doing?" Next, find a job that allows you to do this. Apply for financing.
Let's suppose you want to travel the globe. Perhaps you are asking, "Where do i want to go?" You might then start saving money and researching other countries online. Finally, you would book a plane.
Let's suppose you don't know what you want. In this case, you'd probably end-up doing one of the things. You can increase your chances to get what you want by asking these questions. It might seem ridiculous, but it's true.
The third lesson is to never lose sight of the possibility of improving the future. It is easy to see why. Your choices influence who you are and what you become.
You can learn from the mistakes and successes of others and continue to improve until you achieve your goals.
You're already behind if you don't think you have anything to offer the world. You have to believe that you're better than you thought you were.
You don't need to know everything in order to start. Start small and build from there. Look back at the things you've done throughout your lifetime. What have you failed to do? What has been your greatest success? How have you overcome obstacles?
You are the only person who can limit what you can do. No matter how much anyone tells, you can achieve anything you set your mind.
Benjamin Franklin wrote, "Nothing works unless you do."
How to Learn Easily from Human History's Victories and Failures?
You don't need to wait for history repeats itself. It doesn't take much time at all to learn from the mistakes of human history. It's important to learn from the mistakes of human history and not repeat them.
The key is to take what worked in the past and learn from it.
This can be achieved by reading books on leadership, management strategies, and case studies of successful companies who have been around for decades.
By doing this, you can draw inspiration and avoid the same pitfalls they did.
You can also find examples of businesses that went bankrupt. Why did they fail. Is there a common theme among these failures. These insights will help you avoid costly mistakes.
Finally, you can read about famous historical figures such as Abraham Lincoln, John D. Rockefeller, Steve Jobs, and Elon Musk. They had the most impressive resumes but none knew how managing people or running a company. If you want to learn from the mistakes they made, it is important to understand why.
It is possible to learn from both the successes and failures of human history. Just spend a few minutes each day thinking about what worked in the past and how you can apply it today.
