You know what the happiest animal on earth is? It’s a goldfish. You know why? It’s got a 10-second memory. Be a goldfish.

Reflection
As entrepreneurs, we tend to be our own worst critics. We spend far more time and energy second-guessing decisions, replaying mistakes, and wrestling with impostor syndrome than most people realize. There's certainly a place for reflecting honestly on our mistakes. Own them, apologize if necessary, learn the lesson, and change what needs to change. But there's a point where reflection stops being productive and starts holding us back. That energy is better spent on the people and opportunities right in front of us. Don't allow yesterday to steal today. Learn the lesson, let it go, and get back in the game. Next play.
Looking forward,
