Failure & Revision

Failure is a device by which we can always learn something new.  When we fail, we are able to identify successful and unsuccessful elements of a project or process.  This allows us to edit our process so that it is more likely successful in the future.  Revision goes hand in hand with failure, as revision allows us to consider the unsuccessful elements of a project and edit, fix, or simply delete them.  The difficulty with this this process is actually identifying what needs to be changed and choosing carefully the way in which it needs to be changed.  However, failure and revision are always learning experiences, no matter whether or not the end result is any better than the original, as the process allows us to learn more about our own methods of working and our own creative processes.
