Getting Up To Speed

So now you see the concept and realize the grunt work in the back end is the only way to get the front to work. I had become the networking queen.  I join, attend and benefit from everywhere I go. It’s not only the receiving part that is unbelievable, it is the giving part that […]

Selling In A Skirt

This is the winning concept.  For those of you that know me, you know all the industries I have worked in…construction, home and auto glass, insurance.  What do they all have in common?  Male dominated industries is the common thread.  Being in the minority had its own advantage-standing out in the sea of men.  At […]

And The Winner Is…

Ok so it isn’t the first sentence I really needed.  Was it the content I was trying to figure out? Nope that wasn’t it either.  Was it trying to decide on my colors, logo and design before I could get started? Nope that wasn’t it either. The winning answer….JUST DO IT!  That’s right.  I felt […]

Phase III

If there was nothing in my way, and I could do whatever I wanted, I would want to bring value to groups of people with information that would help to make them successful and travel around to different locations doing that.  Confusing? Clear as mud to me.  What will the content be?  I already have […]

Chapter Officially Closed…Well Mostly

Of course, wouldn’t you know that my plane was delayed? I was working with a very small window in order to see my daughter and it didn’t look like it was going to happen.  Our pilot made up some major time and from the moment I landed, we had about 10 minutes to spend with […]

Will You Be Walking Around The Building?

Well this is now the last week of work and it’s clean up time.  I’ve already carried out one of my awards every day so that I wouldn’t have to figure out how to get all of them home.  They are fragile and heavy and may have no value to anyone else, but I worked […]

Getting Excited and Make Things Happen??

Well I did go to Chicago for that final training.  Here’s what I weighed: I had no new projects and all my projects were done.  I got the thumbs up from everyone and if I didn’t get to be out of the office I think I would have internally combusted. I think I made the […]

Final Graduating Class

Before I let you know whether or not I met the request to do the last training, there was actually a few other “final” activities to complete. I had the incredible opportunity to help create our internal University. I was also given the honor to facilitate this training and the June session was fast approaching.  […]

Caged Tiger Anyone?

After getting back from my adventure in IN, I was now “grounded” from traveling.  If you haven’t learned anything about my personality yet, I’m not an office person so this was a hard pill to swallow.  I didn’t really understand the reasoning behind this as I did ask if I could travel and was told […]

Waterproof Mascara is a Must

After shutting off all communications for the weekend, I decided to listen to all my voice mails and read all my texts and emails.  A few thought I was full of it with my reason for leaving but in reality were just plain worried about me.  The majority of the messages brought me to tears, […]

Who Knew?

I would soon realize that 8 weeks is a very long time to give notice?  Let me just assure you that it is. I was pretty good at keeping secrets, but this one was tough.  There were some people that were leaving the Company and of course it is only natural for people to ask […]

Now It’s A Secret

Let’s go back to the title of the blog for a minute.  Change is Inevitable, Growth is Optional. I’m wondering if you thought about this and if it makes any sense to you? Before I made the decision to leave, I knew that I could stay where I was and exist.  But there was change […]
