If plan A fails...

If plan A fails then remember there are 25 more letters.

...Today I saw one of my favorite clients.  It is her last visit.  Maybe ever. Today is the first day of the rest of her life in a whole 'nother state.  That is something, isn't it?  To go from baby's first haircut to watching her grow up from my visits with her as she gets her hair cut.  Watching someone grow up as you see her every few months.


There is a good chance we will see each other again some day, but as I listen to her excited plans, it took me back to where I was at her age.  Although I haven't ventured far from the nest I grew up in, my life as it is today is very different from what I had planned way back then.  In fact, had I been able to see into the future and know the path I was to take, with all the ups, downs, and crazy turns there is a good chance I would have run away screaming...  :)

There is also a good chance that had you let me cherry pick some of the choice experiences I have had in this career that I would have allowed some of the chaos to slip in.  Having those hard things that shaped my own path has helped me be better at my job and understanding who I am working for and with.

I write each blog with that in mind.  Hoping that you are having good experiences and learning as you go.  My experiences help me coach and mentor other capable business owners.  May my ramblings help you identify that your problems are not unsolvable.

What are you facing today that you can reach out for help and advice?
Who in your life is willing to be your mentor?
Have you ever been so flattered to have someone copy your work?

As a kid my dad would send us off  to school or whatever with this wise line:  "Make it a good day." So to each of you today I salute your hard work and continue to dream right along with you of everything that will make it bigger and better tomorrow.

Make it a beautiful day.
