How failure can breed success...

Having wrapped up two major projects in my first four months with a new company, one quote seems to come to mind: "success is overcoming your failures, one at a time". For a software developer, this point might be frequently overlooked. Small hurdles quickly get overshadowed with the next challenge. Reaching one milestone quickly opens discussion about the next.

But what do we hold onto on our journey? How do we learn from constant change?

One small victory opens a pandora of new opportunity, and a bigger gap for failure at the same time. With great risk, failure is inevitable. Those of us who embrace failure, will also embrace success.

Thanks for reading.
