Amitabh Bachchan Says Admitting Mistakes Shows Character

Mumbai — Amitabh Bachchan has shared a reflective note on learning, self-awareness and the importance of accepting mistakes.

Writing on his blog, where he regularly interacts with his “extended family,” or “EF,” Bachchan said every day offers a chance to learn and adapt.

“Every day is an education… Every day is a fresh and new learning… every day is cherished for the opportunities it gives to be able to comply with the change and the new… learning is divine .. what was unknown and left to specialists, is good, one must have the ability to pick up whatever the ones that have the knowledge and experience, convey (sic),” he wrote.

The actor said there is value in relying on one’s own understanding, even when mistakes are made.

“Admitting a mistake is not wrong .. it shows character .. once you have admitted it, the burden of its non function is better understood, and all debate on it ends,” Bachchan wrote.

He added that sometimes the best way to end an argument is to let the other person feel heard, rather than continue a debate that wastes time.

“The ‘other’ feels a conquest achieved .. and you stop wasting time on continued argument, by moving on and using what could have been a time consuming enterprise, to devote to something that you have faith and trust and knowledge of .. it may be wrong, it could be right , but it is YOURS ..,” he wrote.

Bachchan ended the note by saying he had an early work call later in the day.
