Mission: FAILURE Recovery
“Unless a man undertakes more than he can possibly do, he will never do all that he can.” – Henry Drummond Mission: FAILURE Recovery. Great title for a blog post. How I wish I didn’t have the expertise to write it so easily. The truth is, not too long ago I set a HUGE goal… one that
