this context fits in more with my colleague Susy....even though my answer still may have some merit. So, barring more contex it could go either way.
Good luck
But in the case of the lost project above, I was TOO cocky and made a false assumption. I might have lost the project anyway, but I didn’t do my homework – I hadn’t fully put my soul on the line – the proposal I had submitted was without soul, and I now know that ‘soul’ is the ONE critical element you HAVE TO sell with each consulting project.
