Tony Robbins taught me that people fail to succeed at a goal not because of a lack of resources, but because of a lack of resourcefulness. In other words, if you failed to achieve a goal, you can’t blame a lack of money/funding, tools, human resources, intellect, time, technology, etc. The only thing you can blame is your lack of resourcefulness.

When you come across a person full of ideas and who is not frightened to try new things, make an attempt to hitch your wagon to their stabilizing force and be open to explore the possibilities.
