"It has been rightly said that, "Failure is an event, and not a person." How we handle the bumps in the road will dictate what levels of success we obtain. I would venture to say that the most successful people you know have gone through far more failure events than those who are less successful."
I would rather risk failure than to do nothing at all!

It must be difficult going through life like a fightened little child. Grow a pair, stand up and fight. With the summer block hours coming up, there won't be any shrinking; quite the contrary. L-CAL can't meet their manpower right now without voluntary junior manning.

Hopefully, you'll never have to see that line. It makes people do some really dumb things. Fear is a motivator that some can't handle and you'd be surprised at who and what they'll do - Excuses run rampant.

I know a lot of us were probably flight instructors at one time and I did a lot of it back in the late 60’s and 70’s. So I’ve retired and I’m back doing it again but I stick mostly to teaching instruments. (The private is a killer for us old farts).
I get to tell my students, there are now two ways to look at this; there was only one way. Spend the time getting to know the airplane, work hard, study hard and fly the airplane and the procedures until it and they become part of you.
But now we have a new way, the Continental way; read the book, watch a couple CBT’s, tie a pencil around your neck and have at it.
Two different worlds.
It’s your choice.
