When Achieving Goals, Don't Go Half-Vast! Attempting anything half-vast can mean the difference between a favorable outcome or missing out on amazing business opportunities. Minimal effort by winging it or sheer lack of commitment is a set up for failure. Who wants that? Success takes: real work  sincere interest  an enthusiastic attitude    Turn problems into challenges, find solutions quickly, forgo complaining, people will tune you out eventually. Ask for help, there is no stupid question and assistance may be just an answer away.  When business becomes brisk, continue to feed the pipeline and pursue work, it will not magically appear. So, avoid half-vast efforts when people are depending on you to help guide them to success.     Had the turtle been lackadaisical, he would have lost ... 02/21/2019

Complete trust is mutually inclusive. Every morning at the home office, Ashley, our 18 year old 'sometimes in - sometimes outside' cat climbs into my lap. Soon she sets to purring as I gently knead her furry head and body until she falls asleep.  This has become our daily ritual. She holds a special place in my heart and forever will. Growing up with the boys, she often walked them to the bus stop. They are both grown now, living on their own. p.s. I think she is too! Haruki Murakam said it best..."Holding this soft, small living creature in my lap this way, though, and seeing how it slept with complete trust in me, I felt a warm rush in my chest. I put my hand on the cat's chest and felt his heart beating. The pulse was faint and fast, but his heart, like mine, was ticking off the time... 04/22/2017
