Are you really ready for love? With love comes great responsibility, and if you're not disciplined enough to love you; what makes you think someone else wants to inherit those same disheveled behaviors into their lives? Make yourself more than just arm candy. Have you ever looked at a couple, and thought to yourself, “ How ’ d she get him? ” Yes, to a narrow judging eye, they seem like a mismatch, but to one another, they're perfect. You see, that person took the time to prep for their husband.   The appeal exudes from what a person innately possesses, not just to what appears on the surface. Now, this isn ’ t to suggest that you wait to get married, until you have everything together, because you'd be single forever, but there are a few intricate steps we should all want to consider, in order to alleviate any unnecessary added stress that already is the inevitable in marriage .

Technology continues to evolve.   How we use technology changes.   People, especially entrepreneurs, have to be nimble, analytical and creative all at the same time.

I grew up with my mother saying this. Now, we weren’t cat-skinning people.   However, I always knew there was more than one way to solve a problem.   If you go in knowing there is always going to be more than one solution, you are more likely to look for multiple solutions and not settle. Don’t just look at what you are aske
