Jack’s Winning Words 8/15/08
“You’ve got to have the guts not to be afraid to screw up.” (Fuzzy Zoeller) Fuzzy screwed up more than once on the golf course, but he kept returning to the first tee. At one time the record for the most strikeouts in the major leagues was held by Babe Ruth, but he kept stepping up to the plate. Just because you’ve failed at something doesn’t mean you should stop trying. I like the Finnish word, SISU! ;-) Jack

FROM PR J.S. IN MI: And...it takes even more guts to put in the work that will minimize those screw ups.....e.g. Tiger Woods

FROM GOOD DEBT JON: Song writer Brian White has had 11 number one hits and keeps swinging. He does a seminar for new writers called “Dare to Suck.” As I always say: It should go without saying that we cannot meet success if we have quit the day before.

FROM MOLINER C.F.: There once was a fellow named Freed,
Who always rode a white steed.
He said with great pride,
Look at the positive side,
.And you'll live a great life. Guaranteed.

FROM F.M. IN WI: He who takes risks, usually accomplishes things.
The important thing is not to avoid risks, but to be diligent in considering the risks you select to take on.
