After spending 2 hours implementing a solution, I realized it would only fix half the problem. I had scheduled 45 minutes for it. It was going to be done by [...] I spent last week with my extended family in Helen, GA – my two brothers, their families, and my parents. Whenever you take a trip of this magnitude you’re bound to forget something, and we forgot the worst of all possible things. The one thing that absent would make our entire trip miserable… A person’s success is directly proportional to the number and size of the failures they’re willing to risk. So, figuring how to fail better and more often will help us succeed. |
