Self Improvement
Haiku: by Miracle Man
12/14/2021

How to get ahead,
means wake up, get up, lace up,
be dependable.


My Grandfather once said
he’d never heard of anyone dying from hard work.

Awesome! What this world is doing to these kids. We were made to do not (literally) to twiddle our thumbs!!

TOM, THE ONLY THING HARD WORK EVER GOT ME WAS MORE HARD WORK.....and that allowed me to continue to work, support myself and my family, gather a few "things" and enjoy the "fruits of my labor" (so to speak)

John, Good for you! During my working life I had a target date to retire at age 55. Working hard and smart (and God blessing me) allowed me to retire at 56, 2 months past my goal. God has blessed my life and I have no regrets whatsoever. Hope you and yours have a great Christmas. Tom
