Childhood Relationship that Made a Difference

Hi y'all,

I want to talk about my first role model and mentor. "Slick", as he was known in the neighborhood, always had a warm greeting and smile for anyone. He took me to my first baseball game. He gave me my first job. I was 10/11. I had to move a pile of dirt from one place to another. This never make sense to me but he paid me a dollar a day and it was money that I didn't have to ask my dad for.

There was nothing in it for him, but I learned how to talk to other folks, what it meant to respect myself, the value of keeping my word and showing up on time.

Slick was cool and I wanted to be like him. He always offered me words of encouragement. I never knew his education level. It didn't matter. I just knew that if I needed someone to talk with, he would be there.

This are things that I have never told him. It would be great to let him know how much he influenced my soul.

It is clear or me that my business practices have been shaped my the things I learned from Slick. The essence of being a leader, the value of hard work and respect for others are all things that have contributed to my business success.

Everybody Needs a Bubba

Hi ya'll!

I created this blog today with the help of Bubba. Bubba knows how to set up blogs and has a good idea or two. Bubba says you need to read this blog. Me, I am just doing this for the pure fun and entertainment of expressing my thoughts on relationships.
