How do you handle failure?

  1. No, a one-liner again! What have I done? But I agree with you: It's not about negative or positive thinking - it's about realistic thinkning. Read Popper, Wittgenstein and - Soros. P.S. I hope this is a two-liner...

  2. Those titles remind me of an old book "The Art of Negoitiating". I don't really know why they reminded me of this book. I will have to re-read them. Sometimes my mind plays tricks on me. The conditioning I guess has me imagining things. :).

    But seriously those one word questions you ask like "Why"? really bring out the best posts from people. LOL

  3. agree. but soros?

    and when one considers that the lasting impact of failure is determined by how one defines it, realistic can be either positive or negative, depending on one's convictions.

    imnsho, there is no failure. unless one chooses it.
