There has never been a failure

There has never been a failure

Life is like a baby toddler. No matter how many times you fall, you will always try until you finally stand up. So we never fail, we are just looking for the next way to stand up.
In your infanthood, you learn to walk by constantly trying and making mistakes. When you try hard for the first time, you fall and return to crawling. You didn't care about your fear of wrestling and ignored the results you caused. You keep getting up again and falling again. Then you can stand up like a ricket, but then it is inevitable wrestling. Finally, you can finally walk upright. Imagine if we learned to fear failure in infants and toddlers, many of us may still be crawling with our limbs.
The same is true of everything in life. Our nature is to act without fear. However, because we have learned to be cautious in our education, we have thought that doing nothing is safe and reasonable and making this vision a reality before we try to act. We will fear because we are deeply illusory, it tells us that failure is possible, and failure means that we are worthless.
Failure does not actually exist. Whenever we try to act and fail, we always choose another way. You won't fail, you can only produce results. Instead of judging whether some of the results have failed, it is better to ask: "What did I learn from the road that didn't work?", "Can this explain something I couldn't explain before?", "How can I handle the current situation?" "What?" and "What did I find unexpectedly?"
Take the first plane for an example. On December 8, 1903, a government-funded chief scientist, Samuel Pierpont Langley's aircraft, fell to the Potomac River in full view. It fell vertically into the river. Nine days later, the White Brothers began making the first aircraft. Why does a famous scientist fail and two bicycle mechanics succeed? Because Langley hired experts to implement his theoretical concepts without repeated trials and groping.
Studying the diary of the White Brothers, we can see that theory and practice are closely linked. Over the years, when they solved problems like airfoil and warped wings, the mistakes they made made them make some adjustments, and the insights they gained were more and more widespread. Many of their mistakes have led to unpredictable results, but in turn, they have found a lot of them, so that the aircraft can be produced.

Life is self-contradictory, and you must learn from failure to succeed. The first two car companies founded by Henry Ford ended in failure. Everything he learned from his failure made him the first person in the world to use the assembly line in car production. During his tenure, he also became one of the top three richest people in the world.
When Thomas Edison invented the light bulb, he had thousands of failed experiences. He recorded the results, made appropriate adjustments and tried again. He made the perfect light bulb after nearly 10,000 trials. Once an assistant asked him why he did not give up after so many failures. Edison told him that he had never failed. He only knew 10,000 ways that didn't work. There is no such thing as failure in Edison’s heart.
When you try to do something, you find that the results are not as good as you expected, but you have found fun, and you should let go of everything in your hand and study it. BF Skinner emphasized that this is the first principle of scientific methodology. This is also done by William Shockley and the multidisciplinary Bell Labs. They had to invent MOS transistors, but they ended up with junction transistors and new semiconductor physics. These developments eventually led to the formation of MOS transistors and the emergence of integrated circuits, as well as new breakthroughs in electronics and computing. William Shockley described this as a "creative failure" process.
In the novel, answering the questions about failures is the most basic and creative behavior. This is not by luck, but the highest form of creative thinking. A chemist from the DuPont company, Roy Plenkit, plans to invent a new coolant. But as a result he made a white smooth material that could be used to transfer heat without sticking to the surface of the object. Because of this "unexpected" material, he gave up the original research field and experimented with this interesting material, eventually creating a well-known "Teflon".
The discovery of electromagnetic laws can also be called a "failed" experiment. In 1820, the relationship between electricity and magnetism was first noted by Oster in a public speech. In that speech he wanted to prove a "well-known fact" that electricity and magnetism are completely independent. But this time the test failed - the current has a magnetic effect. Oster sharply observed this result, honestly acknowledged its appearance, diligently completed follow-up research and published it publicly. Maxwell used these experimental results to extend Newton's modeling approach and mathematical analysis in the mechanical world and the visual world to an invisible world of electricity and magnetism. He opened a door to our modern electricity and electronics.
If you just look at the number 0, you can't see anything; but if you pick it up and browse through it thoroughly, you can see the whole world. Failure also follows this rule. If you attribute things to failure, you can't learn anything; but if you look at it as your teacher, you will be able to learn the value of things, learn new things, and discover unexpected happiness.
