I guess that would depend on the definition of failure. Relishing failure as in the "Charge of the Light Brigade" (ie. marching to certain death) is a little masochist IMO. Not too appealing to me.
But if a almost certain failure served a greater good that mattered to me, I guess that I'd be with you.
Failure is a concept with shades of grey, and largely depends on your definition of success. I've met a few people who from my perspective are amazingly successful who feel that they are failures.
- bdclimber14 16y agoI agree, just as there are many definitions of "success" there are many definitions of failure. Here, I have an optimistic view of failure, as in the startup has to close doors with a profitable exit. Even if the startup had a positive impact on customers and the world, I'd classify this as a failure (because of failure to sustain).
