  • Everything you’re feeling is normal. Stay optimistic. We were in your shoes not that long ago and went through the same thing. Keep breathing, deep breaths, maybe take up some breath focused meditation for 15-20 mins a day. Or even some yoga can calm your nervous system. There will be unexpected setbacks but you’re going to work through it all and come out the other side just fine. Personally, I’ve had to redirect my attention to just tackling one thing at a time and keep plugging away so I don’t get overwhelmed with the magnitude of all the issues together.

    How does one eat an elephant? One bite at a time.




  • Maybe someone who works for an airline can explain this to me. Most other industries that rely on a piece of equipment to function, have backups on standby. The number of backups is a function of the failure rate of that specific piece of equipment. So let’s say you are a trucking company, and you know from experience that one out of twenty trucks on average will go down in a given week for some repair issue but it’s in your company’s best interest to keep the freight moving on time. So you have 5% of your fleet on standby across your shipping route to keep your business functioning. It doesn’t seem like airlines do this, or they do it very poorly and don’t seem to have any incentive to improve. What gives??
