Celebrating Failure

During this semester I failed to keep track with all of the assignments. There were days I looked at the syllabus and frustratingly realized I completely missed an assignment. I did this at least three times this semester, and it was a big fail on my part each time.

Failure is unavoidable in life. At some point, you will fail. I understand that and after many, many failures I've come to appreciate the learning opportunities that failures bring. What I learned from the failures in this class is that I need to invent a Canvas add-on that puts syllabus calendars on iPhones with daily reminders for assignments!

  1. Hi Warren, you the nail on the head when you said you need to learn from your failures. That is a great idea for the calendar, I don't know how many times I would sit down after a long workday and realize I had an assignment due at the last minute, a calendar like that would be a great reminder. Good job, check out my blog..

  2. Haha! I like your idea for that invention! It makes me believe that you truly have the entrepreneur mindset now because you found a problem and you fixed it with a possible solution and I think its a great idea. It was very difficult keeping track of the assignments but three isn't too bad. You can check out my post here http://theentrepreneuriaou.blogspot.com/2016/04/celebrating-failure-lot.html

  3. Very interesting post. It is a failure that you couldn't keep up with assignments. At least you learned your lesson. Have you had any failures at work that you can learn from? All you have to do is keep a good calendar. Here is my assignment: http://entreprenuershipisamindset.blogspot.com/2016/04/celebrating-failure.html
