Mistakes, asking for help and saying no, sentence 0
Everyone makes mistakes; owning up straight away, saying sorry and learning from them is respected far more than hiding them or blaming someone else, and you learn more by trying than by not trying.
Who acts: Everyone, you · What happens: make, own up, say, learn, hide, blame · To what, where: mistakes, someone, more · Speech: someone speaks here
