Many of the most successful people I know acknowledge and celebrate their failures as the learning experiences they are. They believe that if you're not failing, you're not trying hard enough, and every single failure is an opportunity to do something better next time. I love this attitude.

I suspect that most people who do this also don't see "success" as a finite achievement - a thing to be reached, celebrated and completed. Success is a constantly moving target, and requires overcoming many small failures.
