We talk a lot about successes.
It's also good to talk about failures, both partial and more complete.
And redemption.
The road to victory is long, and I would put my back against Rand because I know this struggle has made him better.
- jarek 12y agoI saw an idea of writing about rejections and failures in science earlier this year, e.g. http://composition.al/blog/2014/04/29/rejections/ http://composition.al/blog/2014/04/29/rejections/ I think there's still risk of others reading a list like that and thinking "look how much they _do_", but it's definitely an improvement on the usual pattern of sharing only successes and good news.
- taybin 12y agoI think the idea that after a business failure someone needs 'redemption' is harmful. Sometimes businesses fail and the person doesn't try to start another business, and that's okay.
