Dr. Mario Alonso Puig - ¿Por qué tu mente convierte los errores en fracasos?

Episode Date: February 10, 2026

Muchas veces no es el error lo que nos hace sufrir, sino la historia que nos contamos cuando nos equivocamos.Cuando la mente convierte un error en un fracaso, aparece el miedo, la culpa y el castigo interior. Y en ese estado, el cerebro deja de aprender. Literalmente.En este vídeo reflexionamos sobre la naturaleza del error humano, por qué repetimos los mismos errores una y otra vez y qué ocurre en nuestro cerebro cuando vivimos el error como algo personal, demoledor y definitivo.La evolución, la neurociencia, el arte y los grandes descubrimientos de la historia nos enseñan algo esencial: no hay aprendizaje sin error. No hay obra maestra sin bocetos imperfectos.Aprender del error no significa evitar el dolor, sino atravesarlo con consciencia, humildad y curiosidad. Solo así el error deja de ser un obstáculo y se convierte en una oportunidad de crecimiento.Si este contenido te aporta claridad, te invito a suscribirte al canal y a compartirlo.

Our mind, when we commit a error, tient to make that we live as a fracass. In the being human, this critical interior, that begins to give a connotation to the error that goes more than a failure, of something that no has functioned, he does a connotation very negative,

and this produces such tension internal, that the person is like it was like to put in a fog. Delante, immediately, he gets that's got to beaming and he's alej. What occurs? that then then then

can't learn. If not can learn, evidently, he's going to be to make the same

error one and other other way. The problem is to make the problem is to make the same

error one and another way. What is the major error confessable of the that you

have been if you is that you're you're going to well, I think

that maybe the error that me in the case for

a a discussion with my kids because I felt that they were being very desagraceous, they had led to

a place a place not they were the most minimum of gratitude and I went to the camera like

very enfadable and in that moment before to doormir me I said a question and if

were I was I'm the I'm and it was spectacular because in that

moment of a I had had a I had never had

I changed, me I was back, I went to my wife of my kids, that were like with a little tristone,

and I said, I've seen I've seen, I've got to, and the truth is that that you were marvellouso.

Fisket that's a phrase a little manned, that the errors is a pender, but I

think the that the the body human is an example perfect of that when something

the system learn, for example, the system immunitarian that is a better a

contagion or I've created to have been to Mario that the that the the Cerebro refuces when he

a failure? The system immune has two, like two systems of a defense a defense natural

and a specific natural is that enter a bacteria and immediately is put in march to

a a hercuit that really really not know is and is he is he's

prepared to some way to destroy much types of bacteria what

is what a, let's a, like, a arm specific against that the bacteria.

So, has to make information to a, a defense more specific that is the that create

anti-cuerpors concretes to destroy that type of bacteria. The Cere human also effectively

has systems to recognize the errors and to learn of the errors. What the part is

that for that we need a different enough sufficiently abirt, or sufficiently

humilde as a to get us to the error, quitandoly a series of connotations emotional, that many times they're that

they're not because it's a way, it's a good and it's a commodity, generate a change, and

do you know, that's beautiful, our has evolved from the, from the origins, a base

of proof and error. I mean, a problem, has been what, in some way,

has been to have to learn. What the part is that you have to have

ojo those errors that we're not so that we're going to be a brandisage detracts. You know what

you mean to have an option to learn to learn and many times when you're a little

the lemma is comete errors that is when when less price you you're going to pay for

them. Fiatte that I yesterday he had a world and this

time and they when we commit errors. And there's a phrase, another phrase, that's manita

that says that the mania is the only animal that's the only animal that's the thing that's a day of a thing good,

and the time and the chimpanses insistent in the tasks that not functioned, after that's that's that's not

times with the same thing, the case is that thinking and doing it and giving them thinking, I think the

only that we're the only thing is that we're the only thing commit the same error, knowing that he's going to

make it moved not for the ignorance, but maybe for the experience of the desire, and then I think that we're the only who, maybe, tropezzing, we have the capacity to look to the pietra and

learn of that, but for the proper emotion that you've put, no? Well, the animals if they're, the, the time is, how time are how time in learning, and the being human, to us, the problem

that we have with the errors, because we repeat we one and other time the same error is because our mind when we commit an error tiend to do a certain to do we've got to

what he's that's saying that the error is essentially a thing that has a animal intent something no he

doesn't and this we've got those we're in the gepardos for example how can can be

their systems of when something no no function as in the the human enter this critical interior that

that's a connotation to the error that is more than a the the of a little that's a functioned. He's a connotation very negative. You have committed an error? Well, you're incapable. You've got a error. It's a tonto.

It's a tont. No, no, sirbes. And this produces such tension internal that the person is how it's like they put in a foe and immediately, he's getting that's a lehade. What occurs?

That then, then, not can't learn. If not can learn, evidently will be to commit the same error one and other other way. The problem is committing errors. The problem is to commit the same error one and

other way. And that's very typical of the persons. It's perhaps a minute that, being a homo sapiens, is that being the species, between commies, elegida commit us that error for our rechazzed to

see the errors as opportunities to learn and also it's very important the context in the case. There are contexts that are very very durous with the error. They're saying that you're creative, that you have to be creatives, but when

someone comete an error intentantando provar a new abhorage, this context, this entomor is demoled with the person. So it's logical that person now want to

try new things. And there are other contexts that are very different culturallyly and that when you commit a error, essentially the

proper context invita, the proper system invita that you reflections on that's error and you can't how you can't

correct and that you can't learn of it. You've mentioned the words a fracaso. How, and you

say, no, that the cerebral distinctly between the error and the

difference exactly? The difference between an error and a fracasy is if you learn

of the error or not all horror implica a a price that you have to pay nobody comete errors a proposite when you're not

only only you don't only you pay that price but the error, so you pay you pay a price added because you know prendes nothing of that error then the price that you pagas is the double and the possibility of to be to commit the same error

so those errors are part of our natureza Fifat, Thomas Alvarez, who revolutioned, well, the world of the illumination, she's said that committed millions of errors. I've been with

emprendiders that have committed a lot of errors. The proper evolution of the medicine has been many errors, after that's

going to learn. But, of the difference is that if you, you know, you know, the component emotional is so

intense, it's so devastating, is so demoledor, that you the only is to get to that you

you don't you, you know, you know, you see, or not you fix in, in, that, that no has has been, because it has been, not

you've learned, then you've learned, then to that's not we can't call a error, because an error is an element

that has succeeded. This is a fracass, is saying, you have lived that error, in a manner so demoled-

in-pecheekynecending so, making-egeting- un-significant, accusing-to- or accusing to the entorn that that that

that that world you impede to learn and if you want to be to the cerebrose is very easy to understand for that we

can't learn something, we need that the corteza prefrontal is that is what we have just the

front and on the orbits of the eyes be very operative that is our cerebral

executive that is what really at level cerebral neurocientific us distinguish

of any animal existent. What occurs? That that region prefrontal, that corteza prefrontal experimented changes very rapid and very

profound in their riego in all we can't understand that if the neurons of the corte's prefrontal

especially the called neurons pyramidal of Beds are important in all what is the intelligence not receive

sufficient oxygen and sufficient of glucose, it's very easy to understand that not going to functioner well, when a person

permit that an error acquires a total connotation emotional, that he's a lot of anger, he's

a lot of angustia, they're active the nucleos amygdalas in the lovules

of the cerebrose that produce a change of a very profound in the

and favor of a movement of the body of the corteza prefrontal

to other regions that they for what, for, for, for receiving that that's

that's that's a whole of the thing that's uncapable to learn, the person in that moment

has been mermed to their intelligence, her capacity of observation, your capacity to present attention.

For that is so important when we commit us a error, first, to want to the

pain, if that is that is that is consustancial with the error? Is that

how not, how not you will want to one that that's part

in our natural But one of that you have experienced a odor, immediately you have to do do things. Gestionar your state of animo. How do you gestioners? First, with your body. I mean, respirate, tranquilizant, serenart.

No is the fin of the world, even it is the end of the world. And in second, in focus your attention, of a way, like if were a ray of laser, a time, where is there? Where is here the opportunity? I'll put an example. One of the patents that more has been the history is the Post-it. Post-it has been for 3M.

One of the, we, the, we know, the patents but at a level global more brutal is that has been. It's fruit of an error. The chemico, the ingenio-chimic, that produced

this, this species of pegament that pegs and not peg at the best, his mission was to create a pegament indestructible

and he, and he, and it that's a species of babia that pegaba, is one a something totally disconoced. The man,

in the other to say, what disaster, so much recourse for nothing, a pegament that's not a pegament, a

piece of a thing to do that, with people of your department and other department, to see if

if you's occurred, a, that's, in reality, it's like a thing is like a thing is what

I was what I was something, of something different to what you're to lookas, we could call it to callig it like a one error and a person that's a time in a terminated, he said,

that well, would be, to have been to me, to have been to me, and there, the post-it. And so, we can't talk about the post-it.

We can't talk of the Gorettex, also, that has been fruit of a error. There are many

errors that have been in fountes in fountes the problem, the problem, the problem

that was the first antibiotic, was that he discovered and that's lot of lot of tons of the penicilina because of course

the bacteria not were accustomed to any anti-biotic no existian was fruit of an error he's

created a mo that destroyed the cultive bacterian that he was studying and in the place

that's where they are where the bacteria with the time the time put the

the plaque of Petri the above of the microscope and he knew

some that were that result, that was the penicillum notatum, it was aung, and he said, oh, this is a cabbaugh, this has got to carry

all the bacteria that there. And, fiftate, of that error, because in the fond of what you want to be that the bacteria creciedan, you know, surged the penicillina. So, what is it? What is it?

Here we have, well, those little examples, of persons who were not from the error, from the observation and from the buskedom of the opportunity, not from the auto-flagellation

or to culpire to or to culpire to the world for the errors. Fidgette that the fracaso does so much people decide to try and also times occur because

the people have the sensation of that pesa more deception to the other than to it's to say that influes the environment but

also many times I think that that all us do the fracas in a media and I think that as a well as a good system of defense. I mean,

because many times not to try it's a salve to pegart. You want to say that the message that is that point in something and you're going to consider if not, if you know, if you can't think it, you'll say with this,

that the termine, rendition, maybe we'd have to change it for reorientation. Yeah, I mean, me, I'm, I'm, I'm a,

I'm a lot, but I'm can't the art and when I go to that pinnacoteca, that's the that's the Musul Prado, no? I remember that there was a one of an exposition that's called the Trazo Occult. I

Encan't the title. I went to see a and it was spectacular. So in Italy, it's a design a technology that's called spectrofotometria infrared, that what you permit is penetrate, in the quadro and to be the intentos that did the painter, before the work perfect. I'll say, you was being the history, the evolution of that

over because, you with the eyes, only see the work maestra, but at the time of this technology, you see, all the errors that committed the the proper painter and that was corruging over the march. For that, from my point of view, it's

very important to understand that the work maestra, is a, a travest, that you those are bettering, and the grand masters of the painting, to those that all that all We don't have to have Tovure us,

They've got to get to that work perfected? Why we're not going to do So, Freud, a explanation to this, from another angle. Freud, about the ideal of the I. The ideal of the

I is like an image that we have Impresed in the Inconsient, that it says that all right. If not is perfect, no, it's perfect,

no, is perfect, if the book that you want to you want to do you, not perfect, not you know,

who's who is a book? So if it's your first book, if is a exigiento the perfection,

if you do the conference perfecta, better, no does then what's what you see,

the people, the people who do the people, the people who did a little a little, was commencing horrors,

was learning, was doing his, those, those little bocettillos, and at final,

his work is a work a master. What occurs? That's, that, we're, we're,

we're we're trying to that the work is maestra, if the book is fantastic, if the conference is extraordinary, is because this person has with a talent of which we're not so. No,

is so. This person has been with a talent, as well, as they're a talent, as all the people in the world world. What what is that this person has, if was, disposed to to go, to learn of his errors to go and

his bocetos after getting to the work maesta there's a there's a story precious of a painter japanes that was considered the painter

better at the order to puter a animal it was a a major that was a a man that was like in the in the

painting the animal revivier then there a one a family that had a one He had much carino.

And, they knew that the life of a general is a life more of a man. They said, well, when

our cat falleck, we're going to have a a, a, a, picture of then they're

a master. And then the master, observed the, the, the, he's a series of a,

a series of, a series of a series of a series of puntes, he fission in the gato of

different perspectives and he said, you're gonna you're gonna do you know so you can't halluciners two years two years two years to those two years will then effectively les answer a quadro of the gato a pintura

a cat to a lot of gout and then they they say but what we're not that this is the lucura but a person that accredited as you how is possible that has tarred two years then he's he's a little armory He opened the armory and see caen Like 200 bocetets and he said he's that he's needed two years

To convert these bocetos of his gato in a Obramaesta That is what we're not We've got our both ourbert. We're we We're exiging us a perfection and at final You see that the people that do things extraordinary He's started a little to, little, down passes and relation and

Relationing with the errors of a form radically Dissinta Thank you.
