We all make mistakes. We can be paralyzed into inaction by the fear and regret of making them and spend a lifetime accomplishing nothing. Or we can do our best to learn from them and avoid repeating them, improving ourselves and our works in the process. Striving for perfection is a fool's errand. Widom lies in the willingness to recognize both our limitations and our ability to rise above them through the judicious exercise of our free will.
