When to use this:

To offer a more nuanced and mature perspective on the concept of failure and risk.

Strategy:

This pushes back on the popular Silicon Valley mantra to 'fail fast, fail often.' It argues that while learning from failure is good, avoiding stupid failures is even better, championing careful planning and deliberation.

Template:

Unpopular opinion: The mantra to 'fail fast' is terrible advice. Yes, learning from failure is good. But you know what's better? *Not failing in the first place.* This obsession with failure often gives us an excuse to be sloppy, to skip the planning, and to not do the hard work of thinking things through. Don't aim to fail. Aim to succeed. And when you do fail, make sure it's an intelligent failure you can learn from, not a stupid one you could have avoided.
