Failure Is A Great Teacher

Failure is a great teacher.  When we learn from failures the lessons are generally “first-hand”—as opposed to learning lessons from a lecture or a book, i.e., someone else’s experience.  This makes the lessons of failure direct, tangible, memorable and, therefore, very potent.  Failure hurts, it’s obviously unpleasant, but there is much we can learn from our failures, if we are willing.
