In Karen Salmansohn’s book Ballsy,
she points out that
“There are no wishy-washy rock stars,
no wishy-washy astronauts,
no wishy-washy CEOs,
no wishy-washy nobel prize winners.” 

Determination is a key success factor
and so is dealing with negativity. 

She advises to be like a cockroach
and “Refuse To Die.”

    LOL, I’ll have to remember that: “be a cockroach and refuse to die.” Great advice!

    Yeah, I don’t think it is the sexiest comparison
    but it certainly makes an impact.
