It’s been a rough couple of years.  In every way.  My business nearly fell apart (more than once), I continued to battle health issues, my personal life rivaled any soap opera, and I said goodbye to a family member.  And in all that, I neglected my business, which lead to my business nearly falling apart…etc…etc…

This morning I lost a client.  And it hurt.  And I got scared.  And I cried.  All in the space of 2 hours.  And somehow I knew, I would pick myself up, stand tall, and keep on working the program.  But here’s the thing – I forgot the program.  It’s been a while since I worked it.  I’ve been focused on doing client work, and that’s only a small part of our business.  I’ve heard a statistic a few times that says only 25% of our work is billable.  Which means there are advantages to “going Corporate.”  I’ve been considering it myself.  And I still have this inner debate.

So what does mean for you, the reader?  Why read my tale of woe?  You’re a busy person.  OK – here’s why.  Chances you have been in the same place.  And I’m guessing that you sat down, re-worked your program, and implemented it.  And hopefully it worked for you.  So I’m doing the same thing.  And I wanted to thank you for all your blog posts, newsletters, social media posts, and any other way you made the effort to connect with me.  You’re my inspiration.  And I will be returning the favor.
