Our town Vanderbijlpark was shaken to a standstill when a big concrete block from a walkway at one of our schools fell down on top of children. Children lost their lives, some had severe injuries, other slighter injuries, but the majority have severe trauma from the events that took place.

Wilmien: welcome to the passion, purpose, potential podcast. I am Wilmien Davis and I will be your host for today. Today we carry on with the second part of the interview I had with Bruce Wade - Batman for Business - Here is a taste of what you can expect in today's session. Absolutely. And Bruce, what advice would you give yourself? How many years ago when you left corporate and you started on this journey to become an entrepreneur ? wouldn't you love the answer to this question? But listen on and you will get it. Enjoy the interview. So I hear you had the dream. We can call it a purpose, vision there is so many words to call it, but why didn't you give up? It's interesting if you say you've been the most, unlikely person, you had the dream and everything sort of seem to turn against that. So that is a lot of resilience to be able to pursue it without necessarily people supporting you. So where do think that came from,
Bruce: you know, I think, I think there's a few things that I, that I hold onto. So firstly, one of my key philosophies is it's easier to say sorry, then please. Okay. And that has got me into a whole lot of trouble, but it's got me a lot further than then I go anywhere. The other one is that I can live with failure. I've learned to live with failure but regret haunts me terribly. And so I'd rather try and fail than not try at all and that has progressed me a huge amount today. So you have failures except I'll make something, it'll fail. It's not a big deal because I know I'm going to try again and try again and try again. So I'm quite happy. I've got a little workshop at home that I've made that my little man cave and I go there and I try, experiment with things, make electronic things and I make, you know, various models and I'm remaking a whole lot of kind of.
