Introducing… Beatrice!
Sep 27th
Hey guys…
I just hired a wicked-awesome assistant named Beatrice. She is an organizational NINJA, which is sure going to help me out a ton…
And even better: She is totally new when it comes to eBusiness and is really helping me understand how to better explain what I do so I can help more people who are starting at ground zero.
You guys are going to get to know her a lot better as she helps me manage my emails, schedule calls, and get better at getting back to you.
Here is a quick video we recorded today:
Cheers,
Erik
Happy Labor Day… Pick Your Pears!
Sep 7th
I got a great email from my “WAMA” (I call my mother-in-law “WAMA” or my “Washington Mom” because, well… She lives in Washington)
Anyways, here is what she sent. Happy Labor Day, folks…
It’s time to pick your pears. It’s Labor Day. It’s time to pick your pears. This admonishment has come down from several generations of grandmothers in our family.
It’s the end of summer and the Bartlet pears may still be small and hard without a hint of the sunny blush which portends their lush crispness but it is time to pick them now. You pick them all and put them in a box and each day you squeeze them with just enough pressure to determine if they have reached the peak of ripeness. Once they are ready, you must eat them right away or risk losing the moment to a subsequent tasteless mush.
What does this have to do with you?
You must recognize when it is time to act…when it is time to pick your pears. If you stall around, thinking it is not yet the right moment, you risk losing your best opportunity. So even if all is not ready yet, you must put things in motion, set the stage, and you will be positioned to harvest your fruit at its peak and realize your optimal reward.
