– F. Scott Fitzgerald, The Crack Up
Mistakes happen. But lack of follow up is deadly in an organization. The people who are willing to try and keep trying are the ones for me.

It’s better to have tried and failed than to never have tried at all.
And it’s better still to just skip the failing and be successful all along.
