Frequently Asked Questions
How to Learn Easily from Human History's Victories and Failures?
History doesn't repeat itself. Learning from the mistakes of human past history doesn't require much time. Be sure to not repeat the mistakes!
The key is to take what worked in the past and learn from it.

What do our mistakes teach us?
You can learn from your mistakes. That means you'll learn something. However, it is possible to correct a mistake. Don't worry about the little things, there is nothing wrong with making errors. All of us make mistakes.
While it's possible to feel embarrassed when you make a mistake, it doesn’t necessarily mean that you should feel bad. It's how you deal with your mistakes that matters most. They will eat at your soul if you allow them to bother you. Instead, see them as an opportunity for growth and you'll be stronger.
Recognize your mistake and move on. Don't dwell on it; instead, focus on the next step. Keep moving.
You don't need to dwell on your errors. Instead, find ways to improve. Learn from your mistakes and be better tomorrow.
Successful Inventions Made By Accident
Inventors make errors. But, how we handle those mistakes will determine if our inventions become great successes and failures.
It is a fact that invention does not happen by accident. Every invention was designed. There are no accidental inventions.
An invention is a deliberate act. A deliberate decision to create something new. Something that solves an issue. You can make someone's life easier.
The key to success is not assuming that everything happens by accident. Instead of trying to avoid mistakes, learn from them.
We would love to tell you that invention is simple, but it's not. Invention is hard work that requires 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 are people interested in? What do they require?
You have to ask yourself questions like these. These questions will help guide you in deciding what kind of product/service you should develop next.
You must let go of all preconceived notions. Any assumptions about what the world wants or needs. You must listen to your customers and potential clients.
Learn what they really want. Not what they tell you they want.
Once you understand what they want, you must devise a method to deliver it. This is where invention starts.
Who originally said those who don't learn from history?
We all wish to live in a world where everyone learns from the past, but there are more valuable things than learning from our mistakes.
There's no better way to learn to do something right than to experience it wrong.
The only real mistake is not trying to ensure you do it right the first time.
Changes are inevitable, and you will eventually realize why you made them.
You might even discover that you could have done it better the first time.
This doesn't necessarily mean that you should stop trying. That means you've learnt a lot.
It may not always be possible to avoid making errors, but it is possible minimize them. That is what will make the difference in success or failure.
It all starts with acknowledging your mistakes. Next, look at your mistakes objectively and ask yourself "What have I learned?"
Your mistakes will only be lessons if your honesty is honest. They can be used as opportunities to grow.
Thomas Edison went through exactly the same thing. He failed many times before he finally invented the light bulb.
He didn't let his failures discourage him. Instead, he saw each failure as an opportunity for improvement in his design.
And over time, he invented the most popular form of lighting today.
So, if you fail, don't get discouraged. Learn from your mistakes. Use them.
You can then try again.
What are three lessons you can learn about history?
History is full of examples of how we can learn from our mistakes. These lessons can be applied today to business problems and used as opportunities for growth.
The past teaches us there is always another way. There's always someone out there that thinks outside the box, and takes risks that make him or her stand out.
History also shows us that it's often the underdogs who succeed. So when you feel stuck, overwhelmed, or even lost, look back to those times when the underdog won.
Take a look back at the past to learn from it and make improvements for the future. Learn from others' successes and failures.
These lessons can help you improve the success rate.

How To
Accidental Discovery of Penicillin: Successive Inventions
How did penicillin get created?
Alexander Fleming, who had some bacteria cultures left behind, noticed that penicillin was growing on them. He was concerned that the mold might kill bacteria and so he sought out a way to destroy it.
He discovered penicillin kills mold and realized that the new drug could also fight bacteria-related infections. The discovery penicillin was one among the most significant medical advances ever. It saved millions of people's lives and revolutionized medicine.
Alexander Fleming did not know at first that his discovery would prove so significant. Nobody else did. Penicillin would soon be a powerful antibiotic.
Before World War II, scientists didn't know penicillin was effective against bacterial infection. In 1945, the U.S. Army asked Dr. Fleming if he could use penicillin to treat soldiers suffering from wounds infected with deadly germs. Dr. Fleming accepted the offer.
Penicillin was effective against many types infections. It saved the lives and limbs of many wounded soldiers during World War II. It saved many lives, and it was used by doctors to save more.
Dr. Fleming was not prepared for his discovery to have such profound effects. He just wanted to ensure mold didn't grow on the bacteria cultures he used to study. But he couldn’t see how such an easy experiment would lead to such a simple medical breakthrough.
Truth is that most discoveries every day don’t appear to add up to anything significant. These are just experiments that were made for no specific reason.
You can see how even seemingly small experiments can have a profound impact on the course of history.
Discoveries that seem to have nothing in common end up being incredibly important. Like penicillin. Or photography. Or electricity. Or even computers.
It is not because someone has a brilliant idea. It happens when someone solves a problem. And then they find a solution through experimentation.
