Asking Forgiveness is more effective than asking permission!

If it's a good idea, go ahead and do it. It is much easier to apologize than it is to get permission. ~ Admiral Grace Hopper

One of the major factors in entrepreneurial success is that the entrepreneur often does not know that something can’t be done that way. Everyone and everything tells you how things can’t be done. Seth Godin’s post highlights “a simple secret of success: ignore the sticker.” By not knowing the entrepreneur is not laden with other people’s limits.

Go ahead and do it. You can always ask forgiveness later. I suspect you will find that having accomplished the task, no one will seek your contrition.
