You Can't Unpink Your Eye or Unbreak Your Foot

This week two accomplished friends realized that regardless of desire, preparation and ability, there are some things that are beyond our control.  My colleague with severe pink eye suffered through his discomfort and disability to deliver the results of a special project to our company's executive team.  Another friend and community leader's enthusiastic pet jumped and tripped her, causing broken bones in her foot.  Unwilling to accept a second day of immobility, she had her cast replaced with a walking cast so that she wouldn't miss any of her overflowing array of commitments.

We can't "unpink" an eye or "unbreak" a foot, but with determination and a success mentality we can work around or through unexpected setbacks.
