Would anyone please explain(paraphrase) the following sentences in bold in easy English?
1. As you go through life in a business, there are a few things you learn and see so clearly and so consistently that you come to know them for certain. There aren't too many things like this. For many, you have to make room for exceptions. Others you have to qualify. My list of what I know for certain begins with this: Individuals of great commitment make the difference in business and in life.
Especially, what's the meaning of "qualify" there?
2. Artzt responded that two things needed to be done. "First we need to re-sample. We blew the fall mailing by dropping millions of two-ounce samples too late, along with the start of the Christmas mail. Postal carriers dumped millions in the waste cans, because the load on their backs was too heavy."
Thank you.
