Opportunity is walking through your life every day in the form of people you meet.
The only thing worse than training employees and losing them is to not train them and keep them!
You find what you look for in life. If you look for the good things in life, you will find them. If you look for opportunities to grow and prosper, you will find them. If you look for positive, enthusiastic friends and associates who will support you, you will find them.
