and most importantly the ability to stay humble as we continue to learn, grow and perfect the craft on witch we embark on.

Many mistakes were made and when I 1st got started rebuilding Subaru Engines, I probably blew 4 or 5 of them up before really, really getting to know what I was doing and doing it right to the point where the end result wasn't another paperweight or lawn ornament.
