Gary Hoover Quote

Repeated failure is key to doing bold things, to being entrepreneurial. Try stuff, fail, fail fast, try again. When Sam Walton was asked why Walmart was so successful, he said, We do a lot of things right. Then asked how they did things right, he said, Because we did them wrong the first time.
