This is one of my all time favorite inspirational, motivational videos. When you feel like you're done and you can't go any longer, just take 10 more steps forward. Becoming a leader is not something that happens overnight. I believe that it is a constant process of development coaching and growth. I adopted a policy from a mentor that I work with that puts focus on five key items in life. Faith, Family, Friends, Fitness, and Finance in that order. If you strive everyday to just do one thing to improve on all aspects of these five Fs the compounding effect will leave you more successful in life then you could even imagine!   Until Next time Here is to your success!

 As some of you know, I have taken in feral kittens to find homes for.  Spirit, a little Siamese, is with my sister now and becoming very friendly.  Less than a week ago I posted a craigslist ad and delivered Kiwi to a nice young woman who has the patience to handle a feral kitten.  She has reported that Kiwi no longer hisses at her, sleeps on her pillow at night and is wearing a collar.  Kiwi also likes the 3 little boys she lives with.  Just thought I'd share the good news. It's hard to get a good photo of a black kitty, but here is Kiwi: I am sad today, because I thought I had a home for Mystery, the little tortoise-shell who looks just like mama.  Mystery is quite smart and took a long time before being hungry enough to go into the kitty trap.  Now that Mystery is in the trap, the g... 12/17/2008

Amanda Hall asked me for an update about our local crisis center, and I am sorry to say it's not great news. From the Crisis Center website I was directed to a video and article on ABC News.  According to this article, the Crisis Center is receiving an average of 70 new families per week requesting help.  According to this article, the Crisis Center will not have enough holiday meal baskets to take care of all of their clients.  They will be holding a Holiday Raffle for both Thanksgiving dinner and Christmas dinner and only the lucky "chosen" families will receive assistance and enjoy a traditional feast. I'm an opinionated person.  I'm not afraid to say there are many things going on that I'm not a fan of.  I have to help where I can in order to feel less powerless over the things I ca... 11/25/2008
