What's awful is thinking that making mistakes is a form of shame, and that being corrected is a form of dominance. That view is something that is taught and acquired and I am very thankful that the people who taught me never made me feel that way. I make mistakes all the time and I never have to feel ashamed about it, nor do I feel that the people in my life who I've learned from hold some kind of position of power over me.
