Let me introduce Mr.Tanaka Kouichi, a Japanese chemist who won the Nobel Prize for chemistry in 2002. He invented a method of mass spectrometry of protein that is useful for the early detection of disease. The process of his invention is interesting. One day, he mixed a solution A with a solution B by mistake, but the mixture contributed significantly to his invention. It is interesting that a mistake results in success. Have you ever experienced something like that?

Hello, Tawfeeq. Thank you for your comment.
Yes, I have experienced that. It's not invention but at least it was a better way to resolve a problem. ^^

Hi, Onee. Thank you for your comment.
Arigato Tam! During my whole life, I hate mistakes. Even at school, I used to make a face when the teacher marked some of my work with that "x" mark to mean that was wrong. Believe me Tam, I try to avoid mistakes as possible as I can. I cannot recall any mistake that gave me a successful result. Thanks for sharing.
Hi, Dara. Thank you for your comment. Anybody does mistakes, so I think that it is important to learn from mistakes rather than to fear them. I don't think we should do nothing because of fearing mistakes.
All the most unexpected inventions happen by mistake ... unfortunately .... or fortunately....who knows what was better.
Thank you, dear Tam...It was very useful to learn something new.
Hi, O.M. Thank you for your comment. The key to success seems to be sometimes hidden in an unexpected place.
