When I garden,
I know that a portion
of the harvest
will go to the squirrels
and other wildlife
and
another portion
of the harvest
will go to slugs
and other insect life.
I plan for this.
I sow extra seeds.
I grow extra plants.
Losses are to be expected
in business also.
Some of your products
will be damaged
or defective.
Some of your customers
won’t pay their bills.
Plan for this.
Sell or produce extra.
