Nearly a decade ago they were in Hawaii with their daughter when they were hit head on by another drive – it is implied that the driver had been intoxicated. On Leadership, Teams, Success & Happiness. Their low point should serve as a warning to the rest of us. And the book actually had me in tears. That quote was SO spot on.

So it seems like there's been this mass denial in certain countries, in certain states, driven it seems like by political leadership that somehow we can avoid these hard decisions, and it will somehow work out.
