Assignment:
Defining Success and Failure
1) How do you define success and failure? Then, take a look at how fellow students in class defined success and failure. Do you see any differences and/or similarities? Reply with your observations.
2) Post a real life example of when a "successful" person "failed," and what they did after the failure? Did you see anything in the Business Owners Corner videos that would lead you to believe those business owners are successful or were afraid of failure? For some inspiration.

"I've missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I've lost almost 300 games. 26 times, I've been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. I've failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed."
