Just like the headline says, this page/board is where you can discuss the stuff that we didn't cover in today's issue. (It's sort of like feedback with a twist) Remember, NO name calling, racial taunting, graphic sex talk and vulgarity in general, PLEASE.

EUR MOTIVATIONAL NOTE

Today’s ‘Live Better With Willie Jolley’ Tip: Fly Like a Bumblebee

     No fear. No doubt. This is it, look out! Success is an amazing adventure. It is the process of having a dream and then pursuing that dream whole-heartedly. It is getting to the point where you believe it is impossible to fail.

     I had the opportunity to meet Mary Kay Ash, the founder and president of Mary Kay Cosmetics. Mary Kay Ash is a remarkable woman who had a dream that others called impossible. She refused to listen to the naysayers, and went on to build a business that is now one of the largest cosmetic companies in the world. The symbol for her company is a bumblebee and it represents the ability to do the impossible.

     Why? Because scientists and animal experts have emphatically stated that it is impossible for the bumblebee to fly because it has small wings and a big body. But the bumblebee doesn’t know that it is impossible for it to fly, so it flies anyway!

     The only one that ultimately keeps you from being great is YOU, and your limiting beliefs. Stop saying, “I can’t”, and start saying, ‘‘it’s impossible for me to fail,’’ and you, too, will do unbelievable things!
