The Pilots Poem

Starting a new plan a project or a new business is very similar to taking a flight. Once your plane gets off the ground, its smooth sailing through boundless skies graceful as a kite. When preparing a plan for a flight, the captain always requests that we put on a seat belt for the beginning of the takeoff is the roughest part. That is the roughest part where most of the jolts and bumps are felt. In preflight inspection the pilot tests the sails and rudder of his vessel making sure that he has total control. He throttles up with brakes engaged making sure that once he stops that he will not roll. As an arrow drawn back aimed at a target, engine at full capacity, he releases the brakes. With God’s grace on silver wings, gravity is defied over great mountains, valleys, oceans and lakes.

"In Preflight inspection the pilot tests the sails and rudder of his vessel making sure that he has total control" This is my favorite part! Making sure we have TOTAL control is mandatory before we can truly take flight. So excited for your continued success. One of my favorite poets of all time: Wayne Smith Sr. ! Namaste
