TJ, you are definitely doing things right. Stick with it and don’t give up — keep learning and refining each day, each week.

Like Martin, I’m a huge fan of Edison. Wasn’t it Edison who had his lab literally go up in flames and said something like, “well, there go all my mistakes and failures up in flames, now I can start again fresh…” I know I don’t have the exact quote right, but the idea is there.

I keep doing the same thing you advise on my Sales Rescue Team initiative – by reviewing and studying others businesses and offering free ideas and tips from our expert team, we learn as well and can use that learning in our own ventures. I’m always glad I spend time here on your site. Thanks for leading the charge for all of us entrepreneurs to fail, learn, get up, and succeed.

Hi Martin, yes, there’s always … “next time”.

I went to the YouTube channel and voted. It is a great series of business video clips. I have said the same thing: “Next time it will be different.” I wrote about taking risks in business and learning from my mistakes in my post, Five Lessons Learned from my Start-up — And why I’d Do it Again, on Open Forum.

I will add your video clip on my Posterous page. I am a fan of Edison. He was a true “prime mover” (book title by Edwin A. Locke).
