eCommerce store
I tried my hand at an online store.
This allowed me to learn Shopify, auto responders, basic marketing, obtaining licenses, filing business taxes, shipping, charge backs, and setting up wholesale accounts.

Twitch streaming
From online streaming, I learned live video streaming, basic video editing, promotion, making basic logos, networking and tons of patience.

Flipping
Technically this was not a failure. I made a profit.
However I learned sales, Instagram promotion, eBay, finding deals, customer service, and running sales.

Photography
Photography was more for fun and I still do this.
I learned Photoshop, Lightroom, growing an Instagram following, and how to compose a photo.
Also this carried over from flipping. So, I learned product photography.

My current and last project.
Personal website
It started as a portfolio site and then morphed.
I've learned writing, coding, copy writing, newsletters, marketing, networking, and branding.
Previous failures have added a ton to this final project.

Here's the takeaway.
Previous failures are knowledge
The project may be gone but the knowledge is always there.
