As some of you know, I am a New York Yankee fan. Yesterday, Derek Jeter went 5 for 5 in a playoff game. Almost unheard of. 5 times he stepped up to the plate and 5 times he got a hit. After the game, he was asked the secret to his success (he will also probably be this years MVP) and he said: 'you just can't be afraid to fail.' Just a morning reminder…… for all of us. Note: It isn't necessary to get a hit everytime you come are at bat! .. and that success can be 'just getting on base' I think some of us who start companies dream of being the next Steve Jobs (yes, I am sharing all my heroes with you today). Instead, just do what you enjoy and know that incremental improvements (just getting on base) can go a long way. Wilder
