When you mess up, you learn from it. Need proof? Then here's the pudding, baby. After Jet Blue airline pulled the mother of all fiascoes last month and left dozens of joes and jills stranded in a plane for 10 hours on the runway, they made a smart move. More than 210 Jet Blue flights were canceled today because of another upcoming storm. They saw that a brick wall was headed straight for 'em, and they swerved out of the way.

Just goes to show, jack. Anyone and everyone messes up. But learn from it and move on. If you buy a bunch of stuff with plastic and run up a huge bill, then get out of credit card debt with the Debt Snowball and get on with your life. If you don't know where your dough is going, then learn how to make a budget and start getting out of debt (after you save a baby emergency fund). The Dave Ramsey Show is full of good info like that; listen in.

Don't cancel me out, jack ... add me to your blogroll.
