If we say, This is never going to work
... then chances are excellent it never will.

We tend to label people - Genius, Idiot,

other ideas or accomplishments.

One of the greatest titles we can have is "old friend."
We never appreciate how important old friends are until we are older.
The problem is we need to start our old friendships when we are young.

can cause us to neglect those friends.
Today is the day to invest in those people
we hope will call us "old friend" in the years to come.
