Word of the Year

-

 As many others do, I usually pick a word of the year. A word that is dedicated to how I want my new year to go. I do it more for my small business than for personal reasons normally, but this year it is for both. I thought about many words, but this word seems to be the one that stands out to me and the one that combines many of the others. 

My word for 2025 is going to be GROWTH. Growth in not only my small business, but also in my team, my other job, my personal life, and within myself. I want to grow in my love for Christ and my love for my family. GROWTH will bring change, and change will bring new challenges to face, but growth will also allow me to do more of the things that I love and have planned for the year. 

I have begun using the word daily in all my business aspects. When I am training new people, I speak of growth. As I am working my business, I am speaking of growth. I want to grow my customer base, my sales, and my team. I want to grow as a leader and a mentor. I want to grow my trainings and become even better at being more consistent, which will lead to more growth. 

Do you pick a word of the year? Do you care to share your word and why?

My Thoughts and Being Questioned by Police

-
I have been very silent here lately and mostly due to having to have some time to think and recollect on life. I needed some time to look at life from my own standpoint and not allow the craziness in the world to affect my thoughts, beliefs, or my attitude. 2020 has been a year that I feel like we are slowly losing who we are as human beings to things like Corona Virus, riots, protestors, racial divide and inequality, etc.  My biggest question is are we not American's and are we not all human? Are we not all governed by the same laws as well as the same flag that flies over many buildings, ball fields, and in many yards? Do we not all bleed the same color? Can we not respect that we are all a little different and that is what makes America "the melting pot" that so many of our immigrants desired and would chance a loss of life to come too in many cases?  Why do we have to be so racially divided? There are white criminals the same as black criminals, there are Asian crimin...
