Dear Walter,
Dear Walter, A part of me wants to begin this letter with a cliché, "Hey Grandpa, it's been a while." In some ways, it has been almost 17 years now. In others, I speak to you in my mind almost every day. You were the first grandfather that I ever lost. You were the first casket I ever viewed. When I remember you in my mind, it is not the image of you in your last days with the cancer. I do not believe that is how you would want any of us to remember you. Your death was my first lesson in how to handle loss.

Wellness in 2021
Minutes turn into hours, hours turn into days, days turn into months and months turn into years. Years turn into lists that we are supposed to check off as we go no matter the consequence of the world that surrounds us. 2020 changed that perspective for me in so many ways. At the end of the prior year, 2019, I made a lot of promises to myself for the year 2020. I was going to focus on growing my business. I was going to have a dedicated office space. I was going to have a full time staff and I was going to find long term dedicated clients. This is the moment where I am supposed to tell you that the pandemic was the reason that none of that happened when in reality the pandemic is part of the reason I was able to keep each and every promise to myself. The distraction was driven away and I was left with the choice to either waste my time or take advantage of it. So, where do I go now? What wellness promises do I make to myself in this new year of 2021?

Hiring Season for Entrepreneurs
My Experience As a business owner myself, I can sympathize with other serial entrepreneurs like myself when it comes time to make the decision to hire a team to help expand the original mission of your company. Personally, my company is my baby as in I grew it myself and expanded the ideas of my original purpose to help as many people as I could but this also meant that I could no longer take on all my day to day tasks alone. This was a hard decision for me and I took advisement from many of the people who I look to as mentors and friends. They all told me relatively the same thing, it was time to hire a team when I could admit I could no longer take on everything.
