Spot on. I think partly this is down to how we are educated. A good teacher will let you learn from your mistakes a bad teacher will berate you for making mistakes in the first place.

Someone will also be remembered for his/her only mistake, even if this is one mistake among 10000 correct statements. That's too bad.
I think that is a fundamental problem with our culture sadly. It is one of the things that gives rise to the fear of mistakes. It also creates the false perception that successful people don't make mistakes.
