The company's fall from grace has been well documented, but just like every other challenge Latman has encountered during the course of his roller coaster career, it was another opportunity to learn, improve, and come back stronger than ever. In \u003ci\u003eThe Good Fail: Entrepreneurial Lessons from the Rise and Fall of Microworkz\u003c\/i\u003e, Latman shares the incredible true story of a life that has embraced the high-stakes risks inherent in the pursuit of fame and fortune so that you, too, can learn--and even profit--from his mistakes. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFrom being declared the next Internet billionaire to losing eleven jobs in twelve months, Latman has experienced the peaks and valleys of all-or-nothing entrepreneurship over and over again. It's easy to feel sorry for yourself, but Latman understands that out of error comes experience. That's why he embraces the idea of the \"Good Fail\"--a mistake from which you learn more than you lose. Such missteps hurt in the short term but offer long-term benefits, and there's no better example than Latman's own. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNow, for the first time, Latman describes his experiences as an entrepreneur who has used his failures to hone his managerial and business acumen, illustrating the importance of learning from your missteps first hand.
