That's quote #1 in the grumpy old man handbook, and it's true.

I've done the "poor, rich" cycle twice already. Maybe I'm a slow learner, but I realize I was always at my best when down on my luck.

Failure brings about the best-or-worst of a person's character.

I tend to judge people by what their NEXT step is AFTER a setback or failure, more so than the failure. We all make mistakes. Our reaction tells the tale.
