Last week, my granddaughter started kindergarten,and ,as is conventional, I wished her every success ,But part of me didn’t.
I actually wanted her to fail in some ways because I believe that failure can be good for our learning process, Success is proving that you can do something that you already know you can do , First –time success is usually a fluke （侥幸）,First-time failure ,by contrast,is expected ;it is the natural order of things Failure is how we learn.
In Africa they describe a good cook as “she who has broken many bots”,If you’ve spent enough time in the kitchen to break a lot of pots ,probably you know a lot about cooking ,I once had dinner with a group of cooks and they spent a lot of time comparing knife wounds and burn scars ,They Knew how much their failures gave them.
I earn my living by writing a daily newspaper column, Each week I am aware that one column I write lill be my sores , I don’t set out to write it ; I try my best every day. I have learned to cherish that column ,A good column usually means that I am discussing a familiar topic, writing in a style I am used to or saying the same things as someons else but in fancy way.
