Be sure to go past “splat”!
A young man traveling comes across a sage and decides to ask the sage how he can find success. The sage simply points to the direction. The young man heads off eagerly and "splat"! He comes back to the sage tattered and battered and thinking that he took a wrong turn…asks again which way to success. The sage points in the same direction. The young man heads off eagerly…and "splat" again! This time he comes back very irritated and even more physically beaten and tattered….and screams….I asked you which way to success and each time you have lead me in the wrong direction! The sage now talks and says…success is that direction….you have to go past "splat"! Too many times it is easy to give up when faced with obstacles…and success may only be one more step away!
