It’s a hard pill to swallow but as human’s we learn only through experience it seems. Good ones and bad ones. To truly learn the lesson, one has to allow the experience.

You can always look back on something bad and find that something good has actually come out of it.

Well, Friedrich’s idea is correct. Failure doesn’t kill us anyway and even will make us stronger IF we knew how to handle that failure. Thus we have treat it as an opportunity to learn and grow stronger from it.

I will listen to this show in the near future. I have been involved in a so-called start-up “failure”, but I see it as one fall forward and one step closer to success!

A top-down approach is essentially breaking down a system to gain insight into its compositional sub-systems. In a top-down approach an overview of the system is first formulated, specifying but not detailing any first-level subsystems. Each subsystem is then refined in yet greater detail, sometimes in many additional subsystem levels, until the entire specification is reduced to base elements.

Same goes with our dreams. If it’s too big or broad enough, we can’t just jump directly to it and achieve it. We have to broke it into smaller parts and achieve them slowly. Well, it should be slowly but surely!
