Failure Is Potential Without Any More Time.

My dear,

Failure is potential without any more time.

And the opposite is true too, “Success is potential given just the right amount of time.”

So, yes, I know you’re suffering, I know you’re going unrewarded, but just give it time.

…But, the moment you see no potential whatsoever – quit.

Falsely yours,
Alain de Botton
