    Ive told people this many times, we need to create more room for failure. From school, to jobs, to building businesses, to loans, to health.

    If we can try something because if we fail we can try something else, we would find a hell of a lot more to care about in this world.

    And the most important thing we would care more about is ourselves

      I cannot agree enough with this statement and especially love your closing. We definitely don’t tend to be able to take enough time to really care for ourselves and try and fail at new things.

      Science and academia, too. There’s way too few papers being published about failed experimemts. “I thought A, so I did B in order to achieve C, but it didn’t work out because of D.” is a very useful result.

        Oh is it better to separate school from science and academia. Thank you, noted
