Well, it's always the person who takes the chance with something that
another wouldn't touch, that can make the quantum leap to success. And
Tom's the kind of person that can do it. If not...... he'll bounce
back and try again. That's just the way he is.

As is often said. Every failure is just another learning opportunity.

I remember a story about Thomas Edison ( don't know if it's true or
not but,). He was being interviewed about his experiments with the
electric light bulb. The interviewer asked him about the thousands of
different materials he had tried to use as a filament that failed and
why he didn't get discouraged?  Edison said that he just learned 1000
ways not to do it.

There's another story about one of the largest janitorial suppliers in
the US. ( don't remember the name of the company now) The founder of
the business was working his way through college and couldn't find a
job in a college town. He got a mop, bucket and cleaning materials and
went to all the local gas stations and offered to clean them each week
for a small fee. No one else would do it ..... so

He just cashed in on something that no one else would ever have done.

Sometimes it works. It all depends if you're willing to take the risk.
