Starting over, isn’t easy. No matter how long you put into the project, starting over is always met with an initial sigh. “Here we go again” “Back to square one” “I have to do it all over again.” Yes you do, but you are also there to do it all over again, you also get to start all over again, and you have the opportunity to begin again.
