Yes. And no.

Those who fail and learn from those mistakes get smarter.

Those who fail but continually do the same things repeatedly, expecting a different result, don't. I'm trying to manage an issue like this right now - I've got a meeting with the dude in 20 minutes - where a company owner continues to use the same marketing strategy based on the same assumptions and is blaming everyone else for repeated failure.
