Thanks for Thanksgiving ...

They say that Thanksgiving is a time for ... well ... giving thanks. The Mrs. and I went to Florida to spend Thanksgiving with our sunshine state family. Prior to arriving in Al Gore's favorite state, we already had lots to be thankful for. Having left just yesterday, we received a gift that will go a long way towards realizing and fulfilling our dreams. Of course it is always wonderful to spend time with loved ones who you see at most once or twice a year. When these loved ones are living their entrepreneurial dreams and fulfilling their life's passions, then you tend to cherish the experience even more.

My sister is ... in a word or 2 ... an entrepreneurial genius. She has a business mind that won't quit. You name the idea and she can outline a path for how to take that idea from the conceptual stage to a successful business. The same can be said about her husband. To top it off, the both have the work ethic to put many of these ideas into motion. My brother who lives in Florida is also on the cusp of entrepreneurial greatness following the recent release of his motivational book of poetry and other ideas that have been recently set in motion. I give thanks for being in the proximity of all of these great ideas being set in motion. Though I certainly had no doubts about my ability to do the same, it is very motivational to see those that you know and love and have been around your whole life, step out on faith and watch their steps be guided according to the entrepreneurial roadmap that God has laid out for them. Give Thanks ... soon others will say the same about me.
