Failure is not an option.

Everyone knows what's going on in the world of fuel prices right now... or at least we think we do. But none are as familiar with it as those operating in the transportation industry (which is, to say the least, one of the major supports for the US economy.)

Suffice it to say that during this trying time it is easy for all who struggle with this obstacle to want to either simply lie down and die, or continue plodding on in the comfort of routine. But at this arduous juncture it is most important to rise above the circumstances, and find new ways to accomplish old tasks, for as Benjamin Franklin once said "The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results."

So I am writing to encourage you, as well as myself to not give up, to press on, and to excel in spite of the seeming insurmountable circumstances. We will find new avenues, new opportunities, and new responsibilities as long as we remain vigilant and prepared to seize them. Failure is not an option.
