“Failure is a part of success. There is no such thing as a bed of roses all your life. But failure will never stand in the way of success if you learn from it.”

– Hank Aaron, baseball player

Bogdan,

Un-canny how you are on the same track as me occasionally.

Fol (our beloved mutt) and I just returned form our 5:30 AM 5 mile walk throught the Orchards.

The Almonds are just starting to open and we'll probably begin harvest in 2 weeks. The chill is starting to set , but we have some more scorching weather coming in Septemeber.

Regarding FAILURE.

This morning a nice Doe was walking through the orchard ahead of us. Fklo is no Dummy,, she knows she can't catch a Deer, but she dashed off in pursuit, chased for probably 3 minutes and eventually came back, tail wagging and a happy grin on her face.

What's the point, someone may ask. SHE DID SOMETHING!

A real longshot for sure, she failed, but she won!. Something was attempted and she got close.

Her success is enjoying life, pleasing us with her antics and staying in shape.

Thanks for your inspiration

I love this quote. It's a philosophy that I try to follow every day in never being afraid to make mistakes and always trying to learn from them. Thanks for the reinforcement! T

If only everyone would take this to heart! We look at the stats in MLM with all the failure rates being so high! Why? 5 primary reasons:

1] Wrong company chosen to promote!

2] Brought in by a "Recruiter" instead of a "Sponsor"!!! No support!

3] Lack of persistance...fail once or twice and throw in the towel!!!

4] Lack of motivation! I see many lazy people who refuse to treat MLM like a business instead of just a hooby, but still expect money bags to magically appear on their doorsteps with little or no work being done!

5] They choose to promote a NON consumable product that is a one time sale!
