There was once a famous scientist who made several important discoveries. Once he was asked how he was able to be so creative, He replied that it all came from an experience he had with his mother when he was two years old.

The scientist then added that it was at that moment that he knew he didn't need to be afraid to make mistakes. He learned that mistakes are just chances to learn something new﹣which is, after all, what scientific experiments are all about. Even if the experiment doesn't "work", we can still learn something valuable from it.
