Do you think that failures can teach you much more than success? Why?

Failing at stuff makes you have to analyze what caused the failure and attempt to fix it so you'll learn a way not to do things the next time. So I'd say you definitely learn way more. What are your thoughts about this?

You can learn from success and failure. With success you learn that what you're doing works so that should be your base line, and that you should keep doing it until you learn a way to improve it.

With failure, you learn what you did wrong, and can learn what you need to do to change what you did so that you can improve what you're trying to do when you attempt it again.

 

I would say you learn equally from both.

That's a pretty valid point...Both are great for learning and improving.
