There are many—the phone, the car, the airplane, but these are not my choices. For an everyday, useful invention .I vote for the air conditioner. I live in Hong Kong, and during the summer, the temperature reaches 35 ℃ or more. The heat is terrible! Without air conditioning, people here can’t work or study. A lot of people might also get sick without cool air.

The most useful invention of all time are the Internet and the World Wide Web. We can now communicate with people and do business faster. I own a clothing store in Mexico City. I also have a website. Now people from all over the world can buy my clothing using my website . I can keep in touch with my friends and family in Mexico and around the world using email. It’s faster than regular mail, and it’s cheaper than using the phone.
RE: The Most Useful Invention: Yes, but…

Jorge, I agree—the Internet is useful. But, in my opinion, there is an “ invention ” that is more important — electricity. Of course, this isn’t a man-made invention, but people like Benjamin Franklin and Alessandro Volta learned how to use it. Without electricity, many of the world’s most important inventions would not work.

Mistakes are great teachers. Success comes to those who are willing to risk making mistakes to achieve their goals and wishes, and who are able to learn from those mistakes. And in order to learn from mistakes you must be willing to pay for them.
Mistakes can be very valuable, but when you try to get others to pay for your mistakes, then you lose the chance to learn from them. When something goes wrong, it’s usually very easy to find someone else’s mistakes, but is that useful ? Of course not.
Much of the value of mistakes comes from the fact that they need to cost that must be paid. The person who learns the most from a mistake is the one who pays the price for that mistake.
When you make a mistake, what you shouldn’t do is to run away from it. You need to accept it because you can learn a lot from it. The mistake has been made, so make the most of it. Pay the price, learn the lesson, and grow that much stronger.
When you make a mistake, don’t look back at it long. Remember the reason for it, and then look forward. Mistakes are lessons of wisdom. The past cannot be changed. The present is still in your power. Make full use of your mistakes to achieve your goals and wishes.
