BEST BOOK I EVER READ

"The Greatest Salesman In the World" by OG Mandino. 
Everyone in business should read it. 
I’ve read this book many times over the years and my company is mostly modeled after this book.


ADVERSITY & GROWING UP

I grew up in a small town of 306 people with 9 Black families in the general area.  Frankly no one had much...if you didn't hunt and fish you probably didn't have enough to eat.  In my world going to school was a delight...mainly because there was running
water and you had lots of kids to interact with.   At about age 9 or 10 I came home from school one day, sat on the back steps of our house and remember thinking that the world has got to be bigger than where I am right now?  At that age I decided I was going to listen to anyone that told me anything positive or gave advise on how to achieve a goal.  My story is not so much about adversity and how I overcame it as it is about reviewing circumstances and environment and making a very clear decision that I was going to listen to anyone that said I want to help you, I want to educate you, I want to teach you.


THE BEST PIECE OF ADVISE I EVER RECEIVED

Don't try to remember everyone you meet at large events. 
Instead focus on making sure they remember you. 


MY FAVORITE QUOTE
