The Devastation.
- The life of my brand-new car, like the lives of so many new businesses, was over...in just three short months of it's existence.

- And that crucial element was understanding that driving required me to have an, "I'm In Control Of This Mentality."
- The "I'm Driving The Car...The Car Is Not Driving Me" mentality required that I take full control and responsibility for maintaining an awareness of the roadway at all times.
