Pretty simple theory and I'm sure a lot of you are already in this mindset. But for people who are not, the changing of your mindset to this mentality should really help you out. It did for me.
Let's say that you try a project and it fails, miserably. What you now know is that your previous string of choices/decisions DON'T work. Now, think back to before you started this.
Did you or did you not know that your strategy would not work? Obviously you did not know it wouldn't work or else you would not have wasted your time. So through failure, you have actually grown quite a bit in whichever field you have failed in. You now know things to avoid/not do.
