I'm not quite sure where you're coming from. That kind of goal is very unrealistic and I can see where you would feel pain.
Why is it unrealistic? I didn't harmed myself yesterday so I succeded with that goal yesterday.
Do you mean that one should only set goals that don't give you the option to fail?

Once you accept that their is something like failure or negative feedback (and I don't care for the sematic game of how to call it)

How do you lose?
There is no losing, there is only negative feedback is an answer of the same quality as "there is no winning, only positive feedback" is to the question "How do you win?".

People always fear the unknown. Some people fear succees and some fear failure.
The public consquences prefer to be blind to failure which makes failure more scary because it's unknown.
There is no no ying without yang and no winning without losing.
If you are balanced you should be better of.

That leaves the question of how to deal with failure once it happens and how to prepare for it.

Talking about this in terms of “bad news” or “bad judgment by business leaders” seems archaic. It’s like describing World War One as “a serious diplomatic concern.”
