One of my favorite motivational quotes is one that's attributed to Thomas Edison.  When asked if he felt like he was a failure for not figuring out the electric light, he is said to have said, "Failure?  Nonsense!  I have figured out 4,976 ways not to make a light bulb."
Okay, so I'm paraphrasing, and yes, I made up the number.  But it was in the thousands, and it ended in 6.  So close enough.  
Today I had a lot of reason to remind myself of that quote.  Okay, so I really only had four reasons to remind myself of that quote, but it took all day to come up with them.  I learned  four new ways how not to make a bezel today.  
Hmm.  4,972 to go.
