Great.
Thats awesome. I’ve developed/bootstrapped 3 startups in the past 4 years and it sometimes feels like I’m failing too, but still can’t stop trying…
Keep failing if you are not Jewish (e.g. Jan Koum).
Is the “fail” from not getting the job, or trying to get one in the first place? Seems to me like someone needs to redefine what it means to fail. What does it feel like to be completely removed from reality?

Great reminder to everyone to never give up and don’t quit on yourself. You can create something great that could someday change your life.
Nice article. Its true that failures are best motivation to reach heights. Its an irony that facebook itself bought them at last that too one of the second biggest acquisition after HP-Compaq deal.
Nice article, I agree. Need a little failure to appreciate a victory. Thanks for sharing!
Love the article, it’s so true. How can you appreciate victory if you don’t know how crummy failure tastes? 😀
