Daily Inspiration: “Failure will always find a path for success in a feeble mind!”

“Failure will always find a path for success in a feeble mind!” – Futurist Jim Carroll

I have this massive folder of ideas for this Daily Inspiration series; when you’ve been doing it for nine years, you’ve always got ideas running through your head!

I was scanning through the folder yesterday, looking for ideas for today, and I came across this one.

I can’t remember the context of what I was thinking or encountering when I write it down; it probably had to do with some event I was preparing for, or perhaps an article I came across in my research.

Suffice it to say, when you think about what it says, it’s true!

And I must say, maybe it describes what I think about the state of global affairs so far in 2026: we’ve got small minds chasing big ideas without thinking through the big consequences.

Seems apt!
