But they do anyway. Many people can tell a story about a teacher who stood in their way. But thankfully others have the opposite story, and a wonderful teacher helped them find their dream.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11195787.post-44184508317978482462012-09-08T09:54:34.278-05:002012-09-08T09:54:34.278-05:00Thom, your words ring TRUE.

One day I read a newspaper column by Harvey MacKay and it really did change my way of thinking and my life. The title of the column was "Don't Say No To Yourself." Sounds simple, right? From that moment on, I quit putting limits on myself. At 45ish, I was promoted from an executive secretarial position to the public relations manager for an international aerospace company. I am currently the Marketing Manager for a non profit agency and also pursuing a new career as a professional artist. I work hard and prepare. Success comes with a little luck, a lot of hard work, and the simple concept to not let anyone, not even yourself, stand in your way.Donna Hamhttp://www.donnaham.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11195787.post-559324892006139172012-09-08T07:39:57.688-05:002012-09-08T07:39:57.688-05:00FYI... to be clear... the Twitter post referred to...FYI... to be clear... the Twitter post referred to at the opening of this blog post is from my own business training company's Twitter account.
