    Lucky :lol:, it makes him successful of course. There's nothing the says that once a failure always a failure, or once a success always a success.
    To which I am pretty sure everybody will agree. :)

    Yes, there is, but you will never understand that until you understand the terms being used. You're still focusing on the success of an endeavor and not the success of a mindset.

    We can measure a man but we can't measure his heart. You do have a point, and one I agree with, but can't measure a mindset l, but we can measure the success or failure of an endeavor. As a sports coach once said "you're never as good as you are on your best day, and you're never as bad as you are on your worst day". Is Ron Johnson a retail savant because he made Apple b&m a success, or is he a retail idiot because he failed JC Penney? I say he's somewhere in between because of the circumstances. People don't flock to Apple stores because of what they look like, but because of the product being sold. Ultimately my point is that what's successful in one place doesn't guarantee success in another. Yes he failed at one endeavor, but overall he's a successful man.
