Everybody makes mistakes and making excuses implies that you do not accept you are completely at fault. If you accept fallibility in a noble fashion, you will recieve the appropriate response 90% of the time. This way, those that seek to ridicule your mistake after you have already recognised it only make themselves look like fools!

It takes courage to make a bold statement that you believe in when others do not but it takes greater courage to concede defeat were this bold statement ultimately proven false.
I was about to post something similar, I am not at all the way described. If I make a mistake or see a reason to apologise, particularly at work, I usually do it straight away, otherwise I start feeling even worse.
