Don't Waste That Experience

This is a good continuation from yesterday's blog post.

Another friend of mine, Love Pyles, said something that stuck with me the other night.

"It's not what we achieve. It's what we survive."

The way I interpret this is that it's not about the stuff we have accumulated. It's about the person we have become.

"Do you remember that time when everything went perfectly and exactly as expected?" Said nobody... Ever...

Even as a think back to meetings I have had with our team and the projects we have done, we never talk about the simple projects. We talk about the tough projects. The projects that had us thinking. The projects which challenged us. The projects which made us stronger as a team and better as a company.

We survived and continue to survive. What's even better though is that we prosper.

Don't let those experiences go to waste.
