More than your fair share, anyway. If the troops didn't follow, it's not your fault.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15630507.post-22702159501942950992009-02-07T07:55:00.000-08:002009-02-07T07:55:00.000-08:00I think you are misguided in deeming the PostOrg a...I think you are misguided in deeming the PostOrg as a failure. It was not. It served a purpose. The ORG was no more a failure. But then the goals I had for each space in my role as participant were different.<BR/><BR/>I thank you for providing it as you did. <BR/><BR/>It was a great pillow to soften the blow of the ORG ending and through it I understood that recreating he ORG was not going to be a good thing the way recreating anything is an iffy affair. Can't go home again and who really wants to in the end if progress, growth and all those other things that mean life is going on are acknowledged.<BR/><BR/>And I can understand your need to stamp on the idea of failure being a good teacher. From reading this you are in the moment. Even if I don't agree that failure was had, you think it was, so bash away.<BR/><BR/>Whatever works.<BR/><BR/>It's a hell of a cycle but it is the one that works and is in play all over. <BR/><BR/>I am not familiar with Ze's words on the topic but it sounds good. Still, I keep thinking about how failures at goal A often do not make goal A any more satisfying to reach when you do reach it. That's panty-waste puzzle-game 50-second tripe. Immediate and hollow victory. Goal ?? Now that is where learning from failure if applied successfully is impressive and valuable. And that is the long term bankable.<BR/><BR/>Go ahead and sock me in the jaw. I can take it.<BR/><BR/>Your new site has a cool idea behind it and it is next level too.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
