Hey, hey, hey!
So no official mid-morning meeting because I'm a little late because I got a call from the high school. My son wasn't feeling well, so I had to go pick him up. And it made me think of all the goals, all the things that we want to do, all the money goals and how many clients we want or people in our community Today, what my goal was, to be able to leave my desk and get my kid who wasn't feeling well. That's got to be one of our goals, ladies and gentlemen, is to be able to help our family on a daily basis and not just monetarily and not just pay for things or whatever it is, but actually be able to be like, I can leave my desk for 20 minutes, or I can leave my desk for an hour, or I can leave my desk for the rest of the day because I need to take care of my kid and my business is still going to run. I'm still going to be able to do the things that I do. I'm still going to service my clients. Um, just a different perspective. On all the goals. Gonna add it to my list. I hope you add it to your list too, is actually taking care of our kids.
