Thought of the Week 3/29-4/4

"Anybody who ever built an empire, or changed the world, sat where you are now. And it's *because* they sat there that they were able to do it."--George Clooney in "Up in the Air"

The moment when this line is stated in the movie is after the person has been fired. It struck me, because eveeryone who has ever succeeded in life has failed at some point or another. Even though the motives behind the statement may be debatable in the movie, the spirit of that statement struck me. We all are just a stone's throw away from failure or success. It just depends on our path.
