I have the same problem with behavioral interviews.

"Tell me about a time when..."

"I want to see how you think."

"What your greatest..."

95% of my philosophy is don't be an asshole, work hard, know my stuff, and don't let the turkeys get me down. I spend no time dwelling on mistakes, as I internalize the lessons and throw out the reason I learned those lessons.

The reasons might come in handy later when you're trying to mentor younger colleagues and you're trying to explain why things are the way they are.
