Thanks to a good buddy that sent me this link: johnmaxwellonleadership.com The column titled “When You Get Kicked in the Rear, You Know Your Out Front” spoke to me with great voice.
I got a big kick in the rear on Monday afternoon. Despite being conscientious, loyal, and hard working I find myself without a job.
A handful of people that I have a storied past with (coached, worked with, former counsel, race management competitors, etc.) indicated that they would never visit the store as long as I was employed there. Simple as that I guess.
Please don’t hesitate to ask me for more details next time you see me. You’ll get the full skinny and my opinions and recommendations.
I’m very happy for my buddy Clester Johnson, he’s being inducted into the Bellevue West Athletic HOF. Clester was business partners with our own Dr. Weeks in the now closed 94/95 restaurant. And he’s a fan of a certain running club I founded.
Linda had a follow up with Dr. Grier this morning, got her stitches out and into a boot. Still non weight bearing for 2-3 more weeks but all signs point to a full and speedy recovery.
And from our buddies over at Peak Performance:
