"I know we tell each other that failing is ok. I know that there are books and blogs written about the importance of failure. But that didn’t mean that I didn’t think it wasn’t because of me."

What a super difficult topic to discuss - props to @micah for his honesty.

Wow what a moving story. Describing the physical pain we'll put ourselves through for a goal where the answer is clear, but being unwilling to put our selved through emotional pain to do the right thing really resonated with me. Those clarify moments when you're able to step back and look at things for what they really are, and decide to take the hard road - thats the stuff successful entrepreneurs are made up. Really inspiring and really great to hear someone speak about those persona, intimate difficult moments. Thanks!!
