“Our greatest glory is not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall” – Confucius
Having been an entrepreneur in some form for most of my life (having only been in paid employment for approx 5%-10% of my working life – meaning I’ve been mostly self employed or owning a business), I’ve had perhaps more failures in all arenas of my life then most. It also means I’ve taken more risks than most. After every setback (or massive screw up!) the key thing is to learn from these massive failures, and get back up.
There’s very little to do with luck, that’s for sure
