Hi
i´ve read in articles and books that failing is most of the times essential for a person to succeed, to get stronger and learn a lot.
And i agree with that.
But i think there is one spectrum of failing that can lead to frustration.
If you fail in a business that you put a significant amount of time and effort to testing and see if the market wants the service/product , you will learn a lot. You will be aware of new resources, maybe meet some new people and develop some good virtues during the process.
Now comes the other spectrum. Suppose you jump from business to business at a huge speed rate.
You take a idea , start working on it, but then after the excitement is over you say to yourself "meh, this is boring, i saw other person in a article that succeed in self publishing/ importing/ info products etc. I think i just need to change route.
In my opinion this second approach will lead to a type of failure that lead only to frustration, because you learn little and you take little from that experience.
I think we all must walk the talk and not just come to the forum saying pretty things. So i decide to present this point of view to see if you good people have something to say about it.
Reflections about whether we should continue or not working in a idea are good, because it can makes us see some flaw in our execution and see if there is really a need for what we are doing.
but in other hand if you re not carefull you can find yourself changing idea from idea and get little results.
Im guilty on this, i´m no angel. I did this in the past, and from time to time it a little voice tells me to change idea, because x and y entrepreneur did it in less time.
nowadays we see plenty of success stories , its easy to quit and go to other courses-
Something that people really want, takes time to build. iF we dont give the time and effort it takes to build something since the beginning until the end, we will find ourselves failing and failing and have no return in our investments of resources and time.
It is a big risk give years to a project . This is why you dont see millionaires in every corner.
A lot of risk, and at the end nobody guarantees nothing.
But if we are not willing to take that risk, and decide to take the route that promise quick money, you re only fooling yourself.
