Failure is not a prerequisite for success. A Harvard Business School study found already-successful entrepreneurs are far more likely to succeed again (the success rate for their future companies is 34 percent).

People who failed before have the same amount of success as people who have never tried at all.* Success is the experience that actually counts.
