I realize that so much of our country and companies have probably been impacted by not so good morals, values, and ethics. While I cannot change the past, I can be cognitive of my business decisions today; thankfully, with digital communications and the internet, I can engage in more due diligence than perhaps our predecessors had available to them. Indeed, if we are painfully honest and raw with ourselves, we can look back and see decisions we made or people made for us may not have been the best. The intent to learn from those and go forward with grace and compassion is ideal. Kudos to you for writing such a cathartic piece; hopefully, your readers can say, "I've been there and I will do better, too."
Devin. Thanks for this. I now a) understand you better and b) see the need for helping more people go through this kind of conversion experience. Hopefully without the firings and bankruptcies.
Good piece. I am just now reading a book on the ethics and scruples of Abraham Lincoln. He would have liked you in his cabinet. Press forward my friend.

Good story. I’ve been complicit too.
Devin,
