 MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT
It's hard to believe that the year is almost over.  As I look back, I've been happy with what's transpired, but am always seeking ways to improve.  No one can accuse me of letting moss grow under my feet!

It's tough listening to all the dire news about Wall Street, our financial institutions and the economy.  At the same time, I'm cautiously optimistic about my business for next year.  I keep looking for ways to add even more value to my customers.  If you have any ideas or suggestions, please email me.  I'd love to hear from you!

 
 FEATURE ARTICLE – WHAT'S AT THE END OF YOUR RAINBOW?

I was heading out to dinner with my husband to meet some friends recently, and was struck by this magnificent rainbow.  (The photo doesn't do it justice.)

 

The rainbow extended the full 180 degrees but was too close to get captured in it's entirety for this shot.  There was actually a faint double rainbow which you can barley see if you look hard.

In any event, the richness of this rainbow got me thinking about the mythical riches that might lie at its ends.  Traditionally, it's the pot of gold, but I know that individuals value different things.

So, what would YOU place at your rainbow's end?

  • More revenue or profits for your business?
  • Better health for you and your dear ones?
  • More time to enjoy life?
  • A safer world to explore?
  • Long-term financial security?

If you're heard me speak, you've heard me say how critical it is to know where you're heading. Without a clear direction, you'll wind up drifting along going where life's circumstances take you. 

What to do instead?

  • Write down your goals
  • Share them with people who care about you
  • Ask for help
  • Revisit them often
  • Track your progress
  • Change them when appropriate
  • Find people who've achieved them.  Emulate what they did.

Dream big and get to work!
