As some may know, I consider rock 'n roll blogger Bob Lefsetz to be my oracle.
Why my oracle? Because of nuggets like the following quote: winners don't always win because they're better than everybody else, but frequently because they outlast everybody, there are fewer competitors down the road.
My life experience tells me that this is so true and that everyone should remember it when facing a daunting challenge.
Life is a day by day competition and it is essential to have "luck", which is the residue of preparation and hard work.
You can do it!
