Good enough, because tomorrow is not a permanent appointment

Seth Godin is a marketing expert, but I prefer to think of him a man with ideas who knows how to write for the Web. He makes this point in his blog today: “The object isn’t to be perfect. The goal isn’t to hold back until you’ve created something beyond reproach. I believe the opposite is true. Our birthright is to fail and to fail often, but to fail in search of something bigger than we can imagine. To do anything else is to waste it all.”

Perspective is what defines us. There are many people who would prefer complacency than the risk of losing face or not being quite as successful on the first , second or third go around. I think that when you want something, really want it the desire to try and fail has a louder voice than the fear of rejection. So what, fail better next time. So what, continue and be dogged. And so what to anyone who says you shouldn’t. The only person you have to wake up with in the morning, every morning is yourself.
