I\u2019m on my way to the dentist as I record this In Your Car episode. I didn\u2019t really want to go, but I have to set a good example for my kids.
\n
But I\u2019m not talking about the dentist \u2013 at least not totally. I\u2019ve been doing a little reminiscing about the early days when I first got started in this business, and that\u2019s what I want to talk about. First of all, I think it helps other people to hear the experiences of those of us who\u2019ve been around awhile.
\n
And also, I like to remember the people who were instrumental in teaching and encouraging me. I took a number of great courses that gave me insight and strategies that contributed to my current success.
\n
And it\u2019s never a bad thing to recall the ups and downs of my journey. It\u2019s been a road of hard knocks, but I kept on pushing forward.
\n
Mine is not a short story, so I\u2019m breaking this up into several parts. This will be Part 1. Part 2 will be coming soon.
