Happy Quote
February 3, 2006 in Happy Quotes"I feared regret more than I feared failure."
—Taryn Rose, CEO, Taryn Rose International (an orthopedic surgeon who left it all to become a shoe designer)
Great quote. Exactly the reason I'm working so hard, so many hours on my own business.
To all the young young and single, it's NEVER too early to start a business! This is the time to do it, when you have lots of free time. Don't think you have alot of it? Wait till you get married.
Just do it - make the commitment.
I'll be happy even if things don't work out as I've planned, because I'll know I gave it my all.

"J'ai davantage eu peur de regretter que d'échouer" ou "J'ai davantage eu peur du regret que de l'échec", but english expresses it in a more simple (and better) way.
Yep, an optimistic quote, among those i appreciate. Thx for your site, Carson, where i always find something new and interesting.

I'm with you Giorgio, with one addition. Also, and perhaps more importantly, it's never too LATE to start a business either. Married, kids, retired, done with med school, etc. Commit and start working today to get something out there.

I remember reading about her in Fast Company. She rocks. "See a need, fill a need." It's definitely refreshing to to hear about people like her. I wish there were more of them.
