Right Kind of Wrong

Failure is a hot topic that everyone discusses, but most of the time in dichotomous terms: is it right or is it wrong? My natural inclination has always leaned toward viewing failure as "right," so I found myself in that trap as well.

However, as in life, it’s more than that, the reality is more complex. It’s about understanding “the right kind of wrong.” The book enabled me to see the various colors, shapes, and nuances of failure. Not all failures are created equal, and they don’t all require the same response. By drawing a crucial distinction between beneficial and detrimental failure, the book has helped me better understand how to fail well.
