Making a better pot


I heard an interesting sermon on Sunday. It was about "Roles and Gifts" and that we should not get the two mixed up.

The illlustration that stayed with me was that of a competition to make the best pot. One person made just one good pot, while another made 50 pots and won. Why? Because the person learnt from each pot he/she made how to make a better one.

Yesterday I found this quote:

"The confidence to recover from error is not a personality trait; it is a learned skill."
Richard Sennett, The Craftsman 2008
