What inspires you to be great? To dream big? To go to school? To get good grades? To get a job? To make money? To check off your to do list? To get out of bed? To go to bed? To read a new book? To buy the jeans your wearing? To catch that big fish? To create? To make things happen? To be innovative? To be successful in the game of life?

 

I am prone to always have a lot of questions swirling in my head. I ask things such as what is your favorite fruit to people kinda often or other questions like that. Some people don't have a favorite fruit. That is strange to me. Because even if I don't have a favorite fruit I could come up with a favorite for a few mins.

 

I get curious to know why people do what they do. I want to know how they even came up with the idea to want to do what they do. What makes you make the decisions that you do? How can I support you as you are trying to make those big decisions? Let me know if I can be of any help. Because even though I have a lot of questions I am here to help you find answers.

Hi All,

I hope your staying warm on a frididly cold day like today. I love how when it gets this cold the weather becomes the main convesation with everyone. The stories about the car's that didn't start. The time someone's grandpa had to walk both ways to school up hill in temps colder then this. It all becomes fodder. What do you think of as a easy starting point for conversations with strangers? That might lead to further networking conversations? I hope your bundling up if going out or if staying in I hope your enjoying a good cup of something warm and maybe a good book.

Best Regards,
Kelsey

Hi All,

 

I hope your having a great first week of school. I am about to head home for the day. I just wanted to drop a note to mention that my family had to put down our dog Libby last Friday. She was 12 years old. Her loss is felt within my family. I look at this time though as one to remember the great moments and the daily little things. I hope that when you face loss in your life that you take a moment to remember the good things. Also this is a perfect moment to reflect on how to live a life. To look forward to the future or to dwell in the past or on the hard things. I am planning to look fondly back at the past and look forward to the future for all the great things that will come. I hope you have a swell weekend.

Best Regards,
Kelsey
