Dear Happiers,
As the Host I was on July 16th, I'd like to share what we discussed “failure”.
In the beginning, everyone gave the definition to “success”. Josh mentioned job, health, and happy. Elton and Gary both mentioned the freedom of finance. Happy mentioned “do what you like to do and let it make money for you”. As a result, treasurer is the definition of most of us.
For the question 2, all the attendees shared the feedback of the video, the commencement speech. We shared some good and encouraging sentences of this commencement address, such as “If you don’t fail, you’re not even trying”. Host, Happy, reminded us that he has shared the video on the forum. It’s an awesome one. Everybody can watch it again and again.
Talking about the terrible failure of everyone’s life, some members mentioned the experiences of investing in the stock market. Some member mentioned making the impromptu speech.
All in all, failure is a lesson that we should learn. All of us should face it, accept it, and conquer it. Maybe we will face a really terrible failure someday in the future.
Sometimes the failure we encounter now is a good training for us.
Happy
