"Why hello there...I am Steve but my friends say I resemble the The Flash!?!"

Well you need to work in your own line and though I didn't like The Flash as a kid, maybe I need to give him a look-see after taking the Which Super Hero Are You quiz.

Thanks Drew for such a fun post!

Celebrating Martin Luther King, Jr.


"Man must evolve for all human conflict
a method which rejects revenge, aggression, and retaliation.
The foundation of such a method is love."

Martin Luther King, Jr.


Here's hoping that we all do something this week to honor this fine man and all that he stood for!

Ripple On!

Don't Let The Ripple Pass You By

What if the person sitting at the table next to you at lunch today was placed there just for you?

What if that person is the single biggest professional contact you could make. I mean the person who could really catapult your career to the next level.

What would you do?

Will you simply ignore the person?

Will you attempt to return the eye contact and then hurriedly return to your meal?

Or would you.....

Smile.

Engage them in conversation.

Ask them questions.

Allow them to see how great a person you are.

Discover who and why this person has been placed directly in your path.

What if? What if the person you bump into today is THE person you need to meet? Will you just let the opportunity slip through your fingers? Unexplored and unchallenged?

Ripples often happen because someone somewhere else put them in motion just for us. Don't waste them. Don't let them pass you by. Because if you do that too often, the Ripples may stop coming and what a tragedy that would be!

Ripple On!
