#20: Failing Forward with Mary Frances

“Done is better than perfect. Get out of your own way and take
the steps then you will see the things you want manifest. Start
even when you don’t know what’s around the corner and don’t quit
on the hard days, just look at your situations
objectively.” 
— Mary Frances
