A few thoughts about failure, from the book "And Here's The Kicker" (a collection of interviews with famous comedy
writers):
According to Adam Wade, failure is needed to eventually find success: "It's very important to know that failing in front of an audience is okay. After you finally do perform well in front of an audience, there's a confidence that begins to grow. It's such a satisfying feeling ... but I really do think you need to experience failure"
And Harold Ramis, one of the top comedic film writers of the last 50 years, failed to break through as an actor. So he decided that instead of being in front of the camera, he'd go behind it (and even cast himself in his own movies, like Ghostbusters and Ghostbusters II, so it worked out pretty well for him).
