A great 'life long learning' quote from an accomplished rancher...

 Listening to the Working Cows pod-cast, Episode 100, Clay was talking with Burke Teichert and they were talking about ranching, Burke was asked "what's the one thing that you wish you would have known all along, when it comes to ranching and/or life?" 


He answered: "That's a tough question to answer, it's been a series of building blocks for me. But the thing I wish I'd known all along is that ... we won't live long enough to become perfect at anything we do. Livestock handling and Grazing management for example, and we love to do those things as ranch managers...but every time we get a little bit better, we get rewarded. And that makes the challenge so enjoyable. We know there's always challenges ahead of us, and because of that we know there's room to get better. And when we get a little better, we are again rewarded." - Burke Teichert
