Excellent presentation by Alain de Botton, described as follows:
QUOTE
[Botton] examines our ideas of success and failure -- and questions the assumptions underlying these two judgments. Is success always earned? Is failure? He makes an eloquent, witty case to move beyond snobbery to find true pleasure in our work.
UNQUOTE
Really worth watching/ listening to.
