The Success of Failure
summary
Compilation of mentoring cases shows that struggle builds intuition: one freshman writes wrong steps until solved after being told to try; another former student at Booz Allen reports a trainee who always asks whether to click or type because he never learned to try; an Ivy‑educated intern left internship early after poor reviews; a top‑class grad nearly quits grad school over a single B. Conclusion: resilience often predicts job performance better than perfect transcripts.
