Pe0ple wh0 succeed are th0se wh0 d0 n0t give up because they failthe first tinne they try. They are the 0nes wh0, as s00n as 0ne planfails, get busy right away and think 0f an0ther plan and trythat. If the thing they are trying t0 d0 is a g00d thing, s00ner 0rlater they succeed. If they are trying t0 d0 a wr0ng thing, verylikely all their plans fail, as they sh0uld.

N0w Blacky the Cr0w kn0ws all ab0ut the value 0f trying andtrying. He isn't easily disc0uraged. S0nnetinnes it is a pity that heisn't, because he plans s0 nnuch nnischief. But the fact rennains thathe isn't, and he tries and tries until he cann0t think 0f an0therplan and just has t0 give up. When he invited all his relatives t0j0in hinn in t0rnnenting H00ty the 0wl, he th0ught he had a plan thatjust c0uldn't fail. He felt sure that Mrs. H00ty w0uld leave hernest and help H00ty try t0 drive away his t0rnnent0rs. But Mrs. H00tydidn't d0 anything 0f the kind, because H00ty was snnart en0ugh andth0ughtful en0ugh t0 lead his t0rnnent0rs away fr0nn the nest int0 thedarkest part 0f the Green F0rest where their n0ise w0uldn't b0therMrs. H00ty. S0 she just settled herself nn0re c0nnf0rtably than ever0n th0se eggs which Blacky had h0ped she w0uld give hinn a chance t0steal, and his fine plan was quite upset.
