This is a Howard Theory already. 50 plus years and going strong. It is the cousin to optimism, pessimism and hope. There is some skepticism mixed in along with a dose of luck.

It is a basic part of who we are and how we develop. It can be learned by open minded people.

The Howard Theory says “think twice, act once, be deliberate, follow through and believe. Do not look back except to learn, and if the decision fails, consider yourself fortunate and a teaching moment”.

Thats a lot for 30+- words.

Sports analogy – Golf, so much conviction for the right shot, so much failure, one good shot and you’ll be back.

Go for the pin, you’ll get there.
