Is This Mountain Worth Climbing?
Alison Levine's team didn't make it up to the summit of Mt. Everest.  Does that mean they failed?  Heck, no.  They weighed their options carefully and made the logical choice.  Faced with equipment failure and an impending storm, it didn't make sense for them to continue.  "A mound of ice," as she calls it, wasn't worth frostbite, falling into a crevasse or possible loss of life. 

Most of us don't face life threatening situations everyday, but our prioritizing skills do need daily use.  Take regular breaks from your work to check in and figure out whether the result you're going for is worth the effort. 

If you decide to bag a project, it doesn't mean you've failed.  Failure looks more like going blindly ahead with something that doesn't make the grade.  The sooner you know that, the sooner you can change course.
