Startup Failure is a Positive Step Towards Success

If you haven’t had a failure, you aren’t pushing the limits. If you are really an entrepreneur, you are a risk taker and less cautious by nature, so failures should be expected. Wear you startup failure as a badge of courage. Don’t go after failure, but embrace it when it does happen and grow from it.

Martin,

I agree with the basis of your argument...to a point. I agree that failure is something we can learn from, however, I believe it is good only when it is with our own capital and funding with which we are pushing the limits.

Done with the money of others, it can be irresponsible and "rogueish." It is something to consider when taking those chances...will we as entrepreneurs fail, or will we drag others down with us.
