You NEED to fail!

Well, this certainly must sound weird to most people, since it isn't really all that intuitive of an idea. Nevertheless, it is still valid and you definitely need to fail. In fact, the faster you fail, the better off you will be, as your success depends on it! Confused? OK, let me expand on it.

Very true, the more you fail the more you learn, and the closer you get to your goals.

Really?

Then AlienQ must be a Business Jedi Master. He is the supreme master of failure.

I couldn't agree more. Success is just the solution of failure. Some try to fix it and do and others don't and move on.

I didn't read your article yet but this is very true. The path to success is paved with failure. On the other hand...

if you are unable to learn from your failures you will never net a different result. It is like Einstein's word for doing the same thing over and over again, expecting different results... Insanity.

there are acceptable failures and unacceptable failures... a broken condom on ovulation day is a very unacceptable one!

Actually, Mark has done a lot of changes based on his failures and has some good business knowledge, it's just to many people are to busy trying to push his buttons and mock his past that they don't realize it.

You need to LEARN from failure more than simply failing.

While I respect you and your opinion. I see no progress in regards to AlienQ.

He does the same agenda setting bullshit he has always done. After he begged ICE/Eric to let him back and GFY, even under a fake nick, and was denied. He has been on this vendetta against them accusing them of everything from child porn to supporting theft. He talks in absolutes like he knows the answers on anything in this industry when he has failed at everything attempted, and he likes to bait heated arguments...

Essentially everything he has always done.
