If you don't take the time and effort to maintain what you now own and have now then what makes you think you will be better at it when you get something newer or nicer? - This is a lesson my dad taught me and it has served me pretty well for a long while

Sometimes I feel there is too much focus put in the offense of business(income) and not enough talked about for the defense of business(spending). - There is more than one way to success and definitely a personal experience. No one else can tell you what success is for you personally!

No matter what your going through I wanted to take some time to encourage you and let you know that you're on the right path. Keep moving forward, friction is a good sign!

Don't be like me and get caught up in chasing after the next best thing every couple months when things get "boring" and aren't paying out what you hoped they would have.

I wanted to talk about the importance of the concept of time management. I run you through an example of a day well managed vs not managed and show you how this simple thing can make all the difference in your success!

Had a conversation recently with a gentleman concerning his disgruntlement with welding as a career. Listen in to see my response...

Don't rely only on your experience or others knowledge of what is proper for your welds. This episode is a call to action to get you to put in your own time to learn and understand what you are doing to metal when you weld it and why you select certain weld procedures to complete a job properly.
