Great Expectaions question 2

""so," said Estella, "I must be taken as I have been made. The success is not mine, the failure is not mine, but the two together make me."

I understood that she was talking about how Miss Havisham had made her a mean cold person but I do not understand what was meant about the success and failure. Is it the success and failure of Estella or is it how Miss Havisham wants her to break hearts as the success and the failure of the Estella's coldness towards Miss Havisham?
