Success is like trying to eat a hard-shell taco in a fancy white shirt. No matter how carefully you plan your strategy, how tightly you hold it together, or how sophisticated you try to look while doing it, something is guaranteed to fall out of the bottom and make a mess. Real success isn't eating the taco cleanly—it’s learning how to catch the falling cheese with your napkin and keeping a straight face while you chew.
