Maybe pivot and return doing job again and trying again after sometime with previous experiences and learnings.

Sree · Answer

Look for reasons on why it failed -> Learn from it -> See if a Pivot is possible or Build something new.

You never truly fail if you don't give up. It just becomes an experience :)

Learn from the experiences and work on the next thing

My question to you is what is your definition of your idea failing?
Ideas "fail" all the time, but then people re-evaluate, re-assess and re-test or pivot on their idea.

Is it really a failure if you had the courage to bring the idea to life and launch it?

Benjamin Sloutsky · Answer

Keep trying and learning

Answer

You try again! You can always learn from what went wrong.

Alireza Baensaf · Answer

@maria_anosova At the end maybe its not for everyone!

Chris Liam · Answer

@baensaf not the same idea. I always tend to learn from failures so if I failed i need to improve. And thr failure will guide me where the actual problem is in my idea or somewhere else.

Alireza Baensaf · Answer

@karen_swyszcz1 Well at the end it has to make enough money! so by failing i meant not making money after you did all you could!
