"Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do.” 

– Steve Jobs

Love what you do, failures and success will be so much more satisfying.

It's a balance. The best predictor for success among post-graduates is their emotional rigor, less their academic credentials. You can walk out of school with every single A and /still/ be less successful than stoics (demonstrably, empirically, every culture).

And worse: you're unhappy, which isn't good for anyone.

And I only just realized that the point of your original recast flew right over my head.

YES, 100% — As for the sake of As are a failing grade. My wife presses the kids on good grades, whereas I'm more about the so-called intangibles: curiosity, embracing discomfort, etc. Between us, grades are a means to an end & classes are what you make of them. A good tag team.
