If you can say the word “GOOD” in response to your setbacks, then guess what? It means you're still alive. If you're still breathing, that means you've still got some fight left in you. So get up, dust off, and get after it.

Hesitation is the enemy. Hesitation allows the moment to pass, the opportunity to be lost, and turns into cowardice. It stops us from moving forward, from taking initiative, from executing what we know we must. Hesitation will defeat us, so we must defeat it.
