But that is exactly the point - Pruitt doesnt fear that possibility, probably because he does not believe there is any other possible outcome other than him turning this program into a winner. There was an excellent line in the movie Gattaca about two brothers, one genetically engineered and one naturally born competing with each other by swimming as far into the ocean as possible. When the more genetically gifted brother gives up from exhaustion and the other brother actually drags him back to shore he wanted to know how could his brother have possibly beat him? His brother's answer was that he never saved anything for the swim back. Winners think only of how to win. Losers think about protecting against losing. It is hard, after falling down repeatedly, not to think how to protect yourself from falling. But that will not help you in winning the race that requires moving forward.
