Your 2019 New Years Resolutions (Come March…)
Who is still hitting the gym by March? Come on my friend, you’ve got this! New Years Resolutions are usually dead and gone come the first week of March. In January there is literally never a spot at the gym parking lot, come March I can drive right into the lobby it’s so empty. […]

The Promise to Over-Deliver
Chick-Fil-A makes the news regularly for their standards of excellence and uncompromising values. I have written about them so many times in the past year its amazing, including this one!
