    I talk about this often, it is an uncomfortable feeling, but we have to push through and sometimes it is just one step more #pln365

    It is especially easy to just not try. Then you don't fail and it's not your fault. Unfortunately I see this a lot with seniors in the final quarter as the game spirals out of their control... or so they think. #PLN365
