Transformation is an acquired taste–not for the faint of heart.

About This Quote

We have all been to a party where we have been clumsy and stupid. We have been the people who have done something wrong but has been so embarassing that we wish we had not even done it. If you went to a party where everyone was talking about how lame you were, then you would probably want to leave. Yet, if you went to a party where everyone was talking about how awesome they were for making a mistake and learning from it, then you would probably think this was a great party.

Most of the time, transformation is a bit like those parties. You think you are going to be downright embarrassed but instead, you end up being inspired.
