This week I have been busy here in Utah Valley. I have instructed over 200 people through 6 presentations and have taken on 3 new clients. I have been busier than usual. Wow, am I ever grateful I am not a politician.

   Tuesday morning I watched the inaugural address of our 44th President, Barack Obama. He is an excellent speaker. I was touched by the willingness of our new Commander-in-Chief to uproot his young family and begin something he is not yet prepared for, but very hopeful about.  One of my favorite speech moments was when he spoke these words, “Our challenges may be new. The instruments with which we meet them may be new. But those values upon which our success depends — hard work and honesty…these things are old. These things are true.” I too believe hard work is a necessary ingredient in bringing success to any endeavor. Two other important ingredients are knowledge and experience.

President Obama, my hope for you is four years of mostly forward progression as you reach for the dreams you outlined in your speech. I am very willing to allow you some time to learn & gain knowledge,  and then I look forward to the time when we each roll up our sleeves and begin that movement forward. (This is always what I suggest to my seminar participants.) I am here to help. I will continue to volunteer in my own community. I wish you great success in your efforts to move our nation forward.

What can you do?
