It's fine to celebrate success but it is more important to heed the lessons of failure.

    A solid Gates quote here.

    Both success and failure are important. Without one, you could never appreciate the other.

      An excellent point. I fail more than most people on this forum. I try so many crazy ideas and I would guesstimate that 95% of these ideas are good ol failures. But I learn so much at each failure AND MOST IMPORTANTLY those 5% of ideas that do work out are normally huge money makers because they are soo crazy nobody else is doing it. If you can carve out your own little idea or strategy, huge rewards can be reaped. If you are willing to try those crazy ideas, you will fail often, but it will help you uncover those pockets of crazy potential.

      So I do everything in my power to reach success but do not fear failure at all. In my mind, the more I fail, the more I will succeed. More failures just means more opportunities to find that strategy that will succeed.

    Very true. If you make a mistake and have a setback and not learn anything from it, you will probably make the same mistake over and over again.

    That's so true, if you are not willing to try out new things, or risk, then you will never be successful. I believe no one has ever made it big time without failing many times. Talk about persistence.

    Yes, and if you've never failed at anything, you've probably not aimed high enough

    Of course because failures is the ladder to success. Looking back to failures and turn it into lesson is very important in our way towards success.

    Failure provides people with a powerful lesson, its up to you to either learn from it or continue in the same pattern. Without failure you will never see success.
