Intelligent failure. Fail (learn) faster to succeed sooner. Intelligent failure is quick, unique, small, cheap and safe. It is possible to fail forwards. We learn and adapt from it. Done well, it makes us stronger, more robust, more antifragile.

We should be intentional about experimentation and learning, managing expectations. Unintelligent failure is slow, not unique, big, expensive and unsafe. Unintelligent failure leads to finger pointing, to blame, which results in people hiding learning, avoiding accountability and ownership.
