Seeing some pretty harrowing stuff in my business of late, given world events. My business is kind of an underpinning of all other businesses; sorta like the electrical system in a house. Too many appliances in the house overheat and blow a component or breaker, it can endanger the system itself, melt it down, short it out.
Days like these, I look to the inspiration of great but flawed men who have gone before us and overcome daunting challenges that would have withered lesser men. Sometimes their words are a guidepost, a compass bearing, a linguistic GPS to guide the soul. To that end I offer up Winston Churchill, perhaps the comeback kid of all time:
“If you’re going through he##... KEEP GOING.”
Be well brothers. We are a strong nation with broad shoulders and an unlimited capacity to overcome any challenge.
