sure sign of getting older

Hello, My Dad used to tell me that a sure sign you are getting older is that you’re always trying to remember some guys name. I have arrived at that point in my life. I’ve never been that great at remembering names anyways, but I sear it is getting worse. It is not a matter of disrespect, but when I meet someone I notice how they shake hands and the way they speak. But, I just don’t listen to their name as well as I should and there lies the problem. I even got a book one time that was about how to remember people’s names. The author said you are suppose to make up a story about someone when you meet them and that way you’ll always remember be able to call them by name. I can’t remember the author’s name but I tried that and when I would see someone I had met in my life I couldn’t remember their story either. So I would just apologize that I could not remember their name and most people consider the source and move on.   Read More
 
   
    
   
Gold Watch

Hello, The best definition of luck that I have ever heard is when preparation meets opportunity. If you have ever read anything I have written or know anything about me, I believe that to be true. When I was young I listened to a cassette tape by Earl Nightingale and he said the secret to success is if person’s will to succeed is strong enough you will not be denied. As a young man with not a lot of success behind me I wanted to believe that statement but as I approach my mid 50’s, I now know that it is absolutely true. There is also another key ingredient that has to go with it and that is you have to be motivated. Someone else can’t want something for you. You have to want it for yourself and you have to do what ever it takes to achieve that goal. It has to be an obsession that you can’t stop thinking about what ever it is that you desire and you’re constantly doing something that will bring you one step closer to the thing that you desire the most. What you just read is true but most people don’t have that desire or are not willing to do the extra things that you must do to get to that top level.   Read More
