Meaning

This points to a more forgiving idea of error, as long as the error comes from making an effort. It can be read as saying that trying, testing, and learning matter more than staying safe and unchanged. In practice, it lands when someone is hesitant to start a project, because it reframes mistakes as part of progress rather than proof of failure.
