4,000 Luxury Cars Sank

A cargo ship crossing the Atlantic Ocean from Europe to the U.S. caught fire and sank with 4,000 luxury cars aboard.

The best laid plans sometimes go astray!

I want to use this story to make a point:

Despite all our planning, investment and effort, we still sometimes fail.

This is part of our human condition.

So, what do we do when failure pops up its ugly head?

We must be sure to understand the precise cause of the failure or there is no benefit to the entire experience.

Next, we must either decide to try again, now that we know the cause of the failure, or decide it’s not worth it and move on.

Don’t, however, spend much time being depressed about it.

Life is just too short for that wasted time.

As a good friend always says, “KEEP ON MARCHING.”
