What Is the Best Way to Explain Your Mistakes to Others
at 16:23
Answer
You don't need to explain mistakes. Ownership is an objective measure, so if you've made a mistake, fix it. If you need help fixing it, then figure out a potential solution and talk to someone who can help you, but by all means, don't spend cycles simply complaining about it. No one needs to know. Fix it.
