failure

[yin]

" I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work" Thomas A. Edison

[lila]

but we can considere a failure in two ways ; local and the global one.

[yin]

what do you mean by "local nad global failure"?

[lila]

partial and holistic

[yin]

when partial and when holistic?

[lila]

holistic as a failure to reach the goal in the time that we are given , to not find the proper way , to look for it in wrong area , but edison was an inventor , I related this sentece to life of ordinary man

local failure is when your kitchen is burning...
global failure is when atomic bombs are falling onto the cities...
