Our differences make the world go around...

We often experience a myriad of emotions throughout the day.  Personally, I'm at my best and extremely productive at the beginning of my day. I also have a sunny disposition and talk quite a bit in the mornings.  I know these things about myself.  I also recognize that most of my family, friends and colleagues are not as loquacious and excited as their day begins.  It's good to know your strengths and to recognize your challenges.  It's also great to know the habits and disposition of your family, friends and colleagues.  Meshing the two can be a challenge but the outcome is usually mutually beneficial for everyone involved.

Didn't Warren Buffet say, "The more you learn.  The more you earn."?

THE NEXT BIG THING!

I had the unexpected pleasure of justing hanging out with my Forever Friends Michael, Alicia and Sandra this week. Plus I learned that my Forever Friend Taryn has returned to the city. And, I spoke with my younger cousin Brian Parks on his way out of the city this morning. Collectively, we are going to create the NEXT BIG THING!

Consider this...

Sometimes your trials are God's mercies in disguise.
