Imagine, a world where the pressure to be perfect was eliminated. Instead, you were praised every time you messed up. Forgot your work? Clapping. Fell in a race? Instant medal.
In this world, perfection would be boring. Unnoticed. The safer option. The real winners would be the ones who took the risks, who fail loudly and keep going anyway.
Maybe the museums would not show masterpieces that are perfect, but the masterpieces that went wrong. Maybe the job interviews would ask for a list of all your mistakes, all your failures.
But also, maybe people would stop trying to improve. Although, they would stop being afraid to try, they wouldn't strive for better. And yet, it would make people so much more confident.
So, would you like to live in a world where mistakes were trophies instead of embarrasments?
All scenarios described are fictional and purely imaginative.
