Cutting Losses

Sometimes you have to sit down and list all the things in your life that are causing you to be even slightly unhappy. Making the list is the easy part, it's what you do with it that is usually so difficult. Sometimes it involves hurting other people's feelings and "burning bridges." That's life. If you don't do it, you will be miserable.

The all-important Life Lesson in all this?

Admit your failings and cut your losses
as soon as you realize them.
