المعنى
Learn from your mistakes to succeed.
خلفية ثقافية
The phrase is often taught to children as early as primary school to build 'resilience' (lòng kiên trì). It is a core part of the national educational identity. The proverb reflects the Confucian emphasis on self-cultivation through hardship. Failure is seen as a way to 'polish' one's character. In the Vietnamese startup ecosystem, this phrase is used to destigmatize failure, which was historically seen as a loss of face. Vietnamese parents use this to teach children that effort is more important than immediate results.
