Adam Osborne spells out why I’d rather hire a “B” student or a “C” student with an interesting and varied resume than an “A” student with nothing but a perfect GPA.
“The most valuable thing you can make is a mistake – you can’t learn anything from being perfect.” – Adam Osborne
Failure makes people better.

“I don’t know the key to success, but the key to failure is trying to please everybody.” – Bill Cosby
It doesn’t matter what you do. If you do something with any degree of success, you are never going to be able to please everyone. Instead, decide who you are going to please and focus on them wholeheartedly and don’t spend much time worrying about the rest.

“The next time you find yourself in an argument, rather than defend your position, see if you can see the other point of view first.” – Richard Carlson
I’m often frustrated by discussions that are little more than insults tossed around and criticism that doesn’t consider the positives of what’s presented. Both are useless, and yet both get attention.

“Successful people are always looking for opportunities to help others. Unsuccessful people are asking, What’s in it for me?” – Brian Tracy
Don’t worry about what’s in it for you if you want to find success.
