Wave Lessons

Many of my most memorable and successful moments in both surfing and in business have came from learning to adapt or recover from a mistake. —-

Do you think I was able to recover from this one?

Comment what you think about this one and if you’d like leave a comment about a time you adapted or recovered 110% after a mistake… We all make mistakes, what are we going to do to make it right?…. Study the image below before reading further. What’s your guess?
