May 9, 2010 - That is true but, knowledge is a very attainable thing; however, optimism and tenacity is not. I believe that one must first shape their characteristics before their intelligence. To be able to strive and achieve is a formidable task that many cannot do. With characteristics such as tenacity, intellect will definitely follow, but typically, ambition and tenacity will not. Because without knowing the science behind failure, you're only destined to fail.

May 3, 2011 - Failure is the root. that carries so much meaning if you stop and think...constantly being stuck in failure you are forced to find opportunity, solution, reason...you become sharp and shrewd. Look for the failure to find success.
