I could not agree more. Too often I find myself and other characterizing failure and getting too emotional about it, and I get too excited by success. The most important way to receive failure is as feedback, because anything else will either scare you off or make you repeat the mistakes that made it a failure. It's much harder to figure out why something went well than why something went wrong, I've been finding.
