to share our experiences at all the things we have done wrong. I personally don't like hearing people brag about their success too much; I find much more value in the realization of failure - and what we can learn from it. None of us should fall in the same pitfalls twice.

Win by Failure

It's funny how everyone wants to talk about success - how to win -

- but we spend most of our time going through hell and back to keep ourselves from failing.

And then we do fail.


I have seen most of my personal and professional projects fail - and every time it happens, I spend days, weeks grinding it in my head to see if I can make out exactly what went wrong.

It's funny how people usually wear their complaining, whining voices when they talk about the things have gone wrong - when they do. I know most people will just hide their failures, or blame them on something else, or the most common justification by self-victimisation.

Since everyone else is too busy convincing us of how they made it big, beautiful and rich, and how their failures were the fault of their peers...


... I thought it would be at least fair to start collecting the true stories of people and projects that failed.


At least I am so much more interested in those.
