Which Mistakes are Okay to Make and Which are not? #29

Why is it OK to fail? What is the narrative you tell yourself to be OK with failure?

In a corporate context vs failing in a game. Freedom to use these words.
When is it OK to make a mistake vs failing? (Jeff Bezos' example - warehouse blueprint)

Conclusion:
Make it OK to fail.
Don't fail so bad that you will run out of lives to play again.
Yes, you learn from mistakes, but you also learn from successes. That's why vicarious learning is huge.
Learn from people who have similar stakes to you. Look at first big breaks. Not 3rd exits.
