Ако искате да успеете, трябва да удвоите темпото, с което правите грешки.
Томас Уотсън, основател на IBM
Аз съм убеден, хората трябва да знаят, че ако направят грешка, това няма да е краят на света. Краят на света може да настъпи, ако си направил грешка и се мъчиш да я скриеш. Ако не си готов да приемеш грешките си, значи никога няма да вземеш правилно решение. Но от друга страна, ако постоянно грешиш, по-добре иди да работиш за конкуренцията.
Санфорд Уейл, президент на "Ситигруп"
Падни седем пъти, стани осем

Падам. Ставам. Продължавам да танцувам.
