Overview
Almost every notable success is preceded by conspicuous failure. These lines are about how to relate to it.
The quotes
Celebrate your successes. Find some humour in your failures.— Sam Walton
A healthy relationship with failure keeps you learning instead of hiding. Humour turns a setback into data rather than shame.
Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life.— Steve Jobs
Persistence only pays if it's aimed at something that's genuinely yours. Borrowed goals are the most expensive kind to pursue.
Innovation distinguishes between a leader and a follower.— Steve Jobs
Following is safe and forgettable. The willingness to try what hasn't been done is what separates those who lead from those who copy.
