It was a scary step.

I was miserable in my job - Director of North America Marketing Services for a world-wide company. I like small company environment and I kept ending up in huge, bureaucratic companies. I decided it was senseless to be miserable and stressed out, so we decided to move back to St. Louis so Tim (my "other half") could go back to work for his family's business and I would give it a go as an independent.

That was my entire "plan" in the beginning. :-)
Once we moved, I got more specific...decided to write a book and get a companion Website going...I did that and here I am.

Hi Donna, If you really want to know what separates winners from wishers read "The Greatest Secret in the World" by Og Mandino. Reading it will tell you why so many make little if any progress but reading it will do nothing for you unless you act on it's advice. If you do act on the world's greatest secret you won't just know the answer. You will own the answer and the power that it gives to those who put it to good use!

Thanks Steve for the recommendation ... I'm reading the Greatest Salesman in the World by Og Mandino now ... really sad to say, I can't even keep up of reading the 1st scroll for 30 days! :o ... thinking of pasting it in my toilet but re-typing it basically is just re-typing the whole book! :o ... hhhmmm ... but anyway, thanks again for the recommendation! :)

Sincerely

D.D.
