I would think that its better to fail in succeeding, as it suggests that your intention was to succeed rather than your intention being to fail. If you intend to fail you would usually succeed, but if you intend to succeed then you might fail a few times or all of the time, but it shouldn't stop you trying, or suceeding in the end.

depends on how you differentiate the situation...fail in succeeding-theres a saying try and try again until you succeed, this means tho' you failed in whatever your plans for the future, you must not stop of pursuing it, until you get the best result, the success.../succeeding to fail-it also applies the saying of try and try again until you succeed, meaning-you are almost there, you will notice if it will fail, of course your immediate reaction is to divert the techniques or rather another options to avoid such failure.

Honestly, this is the 'is the glass half full or half empty' question. The optimistic answer is fail in succeeding while the pessimistic answer is succeeding to fail. So, I guess it all depends on you.

It's better to fail in succeeding. If you fail in succeeding it means that you were at least trying to succeed, and you'll try again. If you succeed in failing then you've failed and that's that. But then again it depends what your ultimate cause was, because if that was to fail, and you succeeded in fulfilling your cause, then succeeding in failing is succeeding in succeeding...somehow...

It's all relevant and there are two E's in succeeding.Just thought you would like to know. Just in case you were trying to succeed at something.

Failure leads some to success, Success leads others to failure....Repitition in either aspect is just an oppurtunity to learn from your own actions.

this is a dumb question like "if you try to fail, and succeed, which have you done?"
if you succeed at failing, you've succeeded, but if you fail and succeeding, you just fail.
