Class Discussion on the Last Chapter (Concluding Remarks) of Shop Class:
Does failure make success more meaning?
The importance of learning from your mistakes.
Failure gives you a different perspective
Failure humbles
The author has a chip on his shoulder, a defensive tone, because the system has failed him.
If your afraid of failure, you won’t take bigger steps.
The author might lose some credibility in what he argues because of his disparaging attitude towards higher education.
Self-reliance can’t be your only doctrine because you become isolated
Don’t be completely reliant but also don’t be completely separate
