Failure has been mis-used so often and is part of the SCRIPTED life we are taught to live.
We're taught that failure is a bad thing - that if you fail, you get fired, or grades marked against you, when in fact, failure is critical to learn and grow from.
I've also started to incorporate the idea (thanks to Tony Robbins' mindset) that failure is only a thing when you're looking to GET.
Wantrepreneurs 'fail' - you only fail when you're trying to GET something by being an entrepreneur. You failed to get the money you wanted, or the car, or the big house.
But, you can't fail when you're looking to GIVE...
If you have a product that fills a need and helps other people, there should be no reason you 'fail' if you build a solution for that need. The only 'failure' we quantify in our mind stems from wanting to GET something out of the experience of building the product/service that fills the need and we fail to do so.
If you're simply looking to GIVE, and you focus on providing value and solving that need, there should be no reason for 'failure'.
