Are You a Failure?
I came across a thought-provoking post on Geeks today that asks: Are you a failure? My initial reaction, of course, (as yours probably is) was “Uh… NO. I’m not!” Then, I read the post and changed my mind. Among other things, the blogger writes:
If you are actively pursuing your dreams, you’ve probably already experienced some level of failure. The great thing about failure is that it just means you’re not there yet, not that you won’t get there. Wear your failure on your sleeve as a badge of honor!
By golly, in that case – I AM a failure! I try new things all the time, and not all of them succeed. However, I tweak and tune what I’m doing until it does work. If that makes me a failure, then so be it! I’ll wear it on my sleeve as a badge of honor.
So – are YOU a failure?
- Google is trying to woo newspapers and publishers.

- The iPod Touch still isn’t getting a camera.
- Windows 7 – to upgrade or not to upgrade, that is the question.

- What desktop recording applications are available for Linux?
- Research is yielding good results on cotton becoming a source of protein.

Those are very true words.
I sometimes mind that kind of simple directness, but fortunately I’m thinking along those lines already.
