Ace Advice

“Success in life comes not from holding a good hand, but in playing a poor hand well.”

Someone deals you a problem, it might be perfection in disguise. Someone asked me if such-and-such computer program could do this-and-that. I said not to my knowledge, but maybe there was an alternative. The programmer, in looking at a couple options, found that the program indeed could do this-and-that, he just hadn't been previously aware.

Saying "no" can be limiting. Saying "what if?" can keep creative solutions flowing.
