Thanks so much to everyone who donated men's, women's, and children's clothing to our drive to benefit both Sox Place and Safe House Denver. We have so much to be thankful for, not only in our careers, but in one another - and giving to these organizations feels great!
We have our entire kitchen FULL of boxes and bags of warm winter clothes, business suits, kids clothing, dipaers, toys and blankets. Not to mention all the food our employees so generously brought in.
I am thankful to work with people who are so selfless and who care so much about this community.
Happy Thanksgiving!

Courage to Change
I have this calendar on my desk where you rip off a page each day, and it has a saying on it. Well, I'm not the best at following through on this. But today I did, and here's what was waiting for me to share with you.
"Sometimes, when we don't have the courage to change, everything changes around us to direct us to a new path. You cannot stop yourself from growing - evolution requires it."
This is especially moving to me because I was thinking back on the times my life has had a big shift, and it was usually not my doing...but it was absolutely for the better!
So - when life tells you you are getting stagnant, appreciate rather than fight it. It's only for the better!
Have a great weekend everyone!

Part of the solution...
I was thinking about how blessed I am to have the ability to create jobs, especially in what some feel is a tough economic time.
I was thinking how when we open our two new locations early 2012 I will be able to create 60 MORE jobs.
Sure it won't save the American economy, but it will save 60 amazing people from having to worry about their career path or what they will do next, or if they will be valued each day when they walk through my doors. It will mean 60 additional people will have a new sense of self-worth, clear and attainable goals, and they will become better at business than they knew they could be.
I just have a small operation in comparison to some companies, but my operation is HUGE in my world. It means everything to me.
It means I get to be part of the solution instead of part of the problem. And that's big stuff.
