Leticia Gasca : Don't fail fast — fail mindfully


Leticia Gasca at TED Salon  (transcript)
Don't fail fast — fail mindfully
Summary
We’ve heard that we can learn many things from failure thus don't worry and don't have to be embarrassed. The speaker created a platform where people can share their failure stories to help each other. They could know that by sharing, their bonds grow stronger and collaboration becomes easier.

However, business is a commerce and a trade. There is a mutual connection between customers and company. In the company also, there is the mutual connection between employer and employee. If one side fails, another side gets risks. Even if one side can have a great learning opportunity, another would stop receiving an income.

It’ll be important to put aside the idea of publicly humiliating failed entrepreneurs, though, we must put aside the idea that failing fast is always the best.

Business has a mutual connection.

Impacting the consequences of the failure of businesses,  being aware of the lessons learned, and being aware of responsibility included failure will be needed. The speaker suggests those called "fail mindfully".

Words in this story
mindfully /adv/ heedfully, advertently
humiliate /verb/ make a dent in, mortify, humble, shame
