The Power of Optimism
When I think of Mr. Casolo, a very particular memory comes to mind, something he said that was somehow so sweet but motivational at the same time; it really left an impression on me and I think of it every single year, often more than once.
Mr. Casolo was dining with us at our Austin 7100 house, and at the time I was feeling like a failure or something, and he said, "Every day is a fresh start, a new chance. You might lose today, but you’ll win tomorrow [as long as you keep taking that fresh start]."
His long-term perspective was astonishingly profound. My life runs much better than it would without his insight, and it is with deep sorrow that I hear of his passing but with great, great joy that I delight in his memory.
