My dad who's been farming now, since he was a kid on the family farm said, What you learn as you go through life as an entrepreneur and a business person is the only people who lose or those who quit. And if you don't, if you don't quit, if you keep going, and you just adapt how you're thinking about success, you will be successful, and it's always achievable.
