What’s the Significance of a Birthday?
Today is my birthday. I generally don’t make a big deal about my birthday. I usually don’t make elaborate plans, I have no must-do’s on my list. I wake up into the day and live. Today is not necessarily different to what I’ve just described, except for two gifts I received from The Daily Stoic…

Hopelessness thrives on clutter… start throwing out its snacks.

Stay true to the voice within
What are the questions you ask yourself as you pursue or are in the process of building and growing your business? Are you wondering whether what you’re doing will make you rich?

You are Unhappy with your Employees; they are Unhappy with WHERE they Work AND You…Now what?
“If they’re not happy with how things are run here well they know where the door is!” “They should be happy that they have a job in these trying times!” “Dem does never see when anything going good! Make one mistake though and you’ll see! Is hell on earth!” “Yuh see me, doh ask me…
Clarity BEFORE Execution. Structure BEFORE Speed
If you could better understand one thing about your business right now….
