When I was on active duty working as a young O-3 in the Pentagon I worked for a future two star general task master who gave me the worst chewing out of my military career. He could tell that it I took it seriously...apparently too seriously and he told me this: "Jim, you made a mistake while trying to get something done. Don't worry about it, just don't make that mistake again. I would much rather have an officer who makes an occasional mistake and gets things done than one who never makes a mistake but doesn't get anything done",\.
We should adopt that philosophy with our political leaders.
