"Do not waste time and energy worrying about things you cannot change. Instead, devote your time and energy to important matters that you can change." My father taught me this motto and set a really good example of how to live it.
Most of the clients I serve are closely held businesses and their owners. I admire these clients because they are willing to take the necessary risks and make the investments necessary to produce the goods and services we all enjoy in our communities.
