Frequently Asked Questions

Who originally said those who don't learn from history?

As much as we would love to live in an ideal world where everyone learns from history, there is nothing more valuable than learning from our mistakes.

You can't learn anything better than trying it wrong.

The real error is not making sure you do it correctly the first attempt.

As long you keep making adjustments, you'll eventually see the reason you made them.

You may even find that you could do it better the second time.

It doesn't mean that you shouldn't continue to try. It means you've learned a lot.

Even though you cannot avoid making mistakes completely, you can minimize them. This is the difference that makes the difference of success and failure.

Acknowledging your mistakes begins the process. Next, look at your mistakes objectively and ask yourself "What have I learned?"

You'll find that mistakes can be viewed as lessons if you are honest with yourself. They're learning experiences that can help you grow.

And that's exactly what happened to Thomas Edison. He failed many more times before he invented the lightbulb.

He didn't let his failures discourage him. Instead, each failure was an opportunity to improve his design.

He developed the most well-known form of lighting we have today.

So, if you fail, don't get discouraged. Learn from your mistakes. Use them.

And then, you can try again.


What are three lessons history can teach us?

There are numerous examples throughout history that demonstrate how we can learn and improve from our mistakes. These lessons can be applied to the challenges of business today and turned into opportunities for growth.

We have learned from the past that there are always other ways to do things. You will always find someone who thinks outside of the box and takes chances that make them stand out.

History has shown us that often it is the underdogs that succeed. So when you feel stuck, overwhelmed, or even lost, look back to those times when the underdog won.

Look to the past and find ways to bring the lessons forward into the future. Learn from the successes and failures of others.

These lessons can help increase your success rates.


What can we learn about Abraham Lincoln?

Abraham Lincoln said, “I am slow to understand; very fast to forget.”

He understood the importance of learning and knew that he would eventually need to let go of old habits in order to embrace new ones.

This is true for our businesses as well. No matter how well we plan for success, there will be times when we hit roadblocks and find ourselves stuck in an unproductive rut.

It's important to keep learning and growing. We must never stop learning, even after reaching the top of our success.

Lincoln was a good example of the right attitude. He recognized that while he could become more effective in his business, he couldn't stop learning.

There are two types: entrepreneurs. There are two types: those who stay active and those who stay informed.

Those who keep busy are focused on their business' growth. They work on marketing strategies, product development, customer service, and other daily tasks.

While they may feel they have accomplished something worthwhile, many times they don't. If these entrepreneurs don't focus on being smarter, they will not be able achieve sustainable growth.

What makes successful entrepreneurs different from average entrepreneurs? The ability to quickly adapt to changing circumstances.

Successionable entrepreneurs look for ways that they can improve their products or services when faced with difficult situations.

Average entrepreneurs, on the other hand, stick to old methods that don't work anymore. They don't want to change until the business goes under.

It is essential to learn both the art of adapting and self-reflection in order for success.


Is it possible to learn from the past and not repeat past mistakes?

Because we make the same mistakes over and over again, history repeats itself. We make mistakes and fail to learn. We don't change. We get complacent. We settle for mediocrity.

Because we continue to believe the same old stories, history repeats itself. We are conditioned to believe in immutable truths and immutable rules. They are immutable laws and truths that we can't change.

This conditioning prevents us from thinking critically. It prevents us from questioning authority. Challenge assumptions. When we do not question, we stagnate. And when we don't grow, we stagnate. When we stagnate we make the same mistakes again and again.

History doesn't repeat itself, because we continue to make the same mistakes. History repeats itself when we refuse to learn from past mistakes and instead keep repeating them.

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. Everything is constantly changing.

To break the cycle, embrace uncertainty. Accept that things might go wrong. Accepting that failure may be possible. Accept that failure is possible.

Accept that you may not reach your goals. You can accept this, but you must continue to strive for improvement.

Holding on to the past will keep you stuck. If you believe there are only certain truths, it will be impossible to move forward.

To achieve freedom, you must be open to change. If you want to progress, you have to give up control.

How To

The Suez Canal Changed the World

Ferdinand de Lesseps was the man who built the Suez Canal. His goal was to connect Europe with Asia. To accomplish this, he had to build a canal through the Isthmus of Suez (the narrowest point), to allow ships from Europe and Asia to reach India/China. This process required building a series of locks and dams along the way. He visited Egypt multiple times, and there he met with Khedive Ismail Pasha in order to finance the project. When he returned home to France, he discovered that Napoleon III had been overthrown, and was being replaced by the Second Empire. They had no interest in such an expensive project. It took him three more years before the French government approved funding the project. After the British were defeated at Battle of Omdurman, during the Sudan War in 1859 they signed a treaty to allow them access to Red Sea via Suez Canal.

The project opened up trade routes to increase international commerce and helped many countries develop around the world, including Canada, Australia and New Zealand, Japan and South Africa.

The Suez Canal enabled people to travel much more efficiently than before. It used to take weeks and months to cross Isthmian Peninsula. But now it takes only days. People could visit Paris, London or Rome without the need to cross dangerous storms or endure long sea voyages. Furthermore, the Suez Canal made it possible to travel between North America (Europe) by reducing the distance by almost 3,000 mi. These advantages made the Suez Canal one of the most important transport projects ever.

The Suez Canal caused problems as it divided the Ottoman Empire in two, ultimately leading to the First World War. During World War I, the British used Suez Canal to attack Germany. However, the Germans used their version of Suez Canal against Britain. The Suez Canal was finally under Egyptian control after the war ended, but the British retained the land to its right.

After the Second World War the Suez Canal remained a vital part of global commerce until the 1948 Arab-Israeli conflict. Both sides were reluctant to take action against the other at first because they feared that one side might use force. Eventually, Israel captured the Sinai peninsula from Egypt in 1967, and the Suez Canal was closed to all shipping except for military vessels. This closure was in effect for four years, until President Sadat opened the canal to civilian traffic in 1973.
