Quote by Eric Ries
Famous pivot stories are often failures but you dont need to fail

Famous pivot stories are often failures but you dont need to fail before you pivot. All a pivot is is a change is strategy without a change in vision. Whenever entrepreneurs see a new way to achieve their vision – a way to be more successful – they have to remain nimble enough to take it. – Eric Ries
