It's fine to celebrate success but it is more important to heed the lessons of failure.- Bill Gates

I read this quote in Kirsty Dunphey's weekly newsletter today. There is some truth to reflecting on failures, however I have come to realise how important it is to reflect on successes.
Being able to replicate & build on success is the key to continued success.
Reflecting on why we are successful helps us do the right things more often. Whether it's winning a new client or a round of golf, learning what we did right is often more valuable than trying to fix what we might've got wrong.
The revised quote could be:
"Celebrate success, then learn from it & build on it to replicate the success!" - Praveen
