The land of second chances

Some people like Donald Trump bet big and lose it all. Others like Michael Vick do stupid, criminal things and throw everything away. Both have bounced back from their failures to reach the pinnacle of success.

America is a place where talent, drive and performance outweigh just about everything else.

So rather than worry about roadblocks and mistakes, focus on the goal, work at getting better, and push past failure to success.

Others have overcome more.

  1. This is on target. We need constant reminders to pick ourselves up, dust off and keep on going. I'm reminded of a quote by Jim Rohn - “You cannot change your destination overnight, but you change your direction.”

  2. Thanks Rick. I figure if guys like that can overcome their baggage it should be no problem for the rest of us!
