  • Fail until you Succeed

    Too often we follow the advice of others, putting our dreams on hold, in order to please the people around us. Because we have no idea how to do what it is we want to achieve. It's so simple, try try try again. Keep failing until you succeed. Success is not achievable without failure. If that concept were taught in schools instead of testing & performance, we would have a better world.
