TGIF

It has been a very good but busy work... more for work than anything. We had three days of management sessions discussion our 2019 plans and strategy at work. Basically it is work hard and more than last year... which is typically the message. However, I think we are being a little smarter on how we are going after the  market this year. We have good plans, but lets see how we execute on them. I am excited. We are basically right in the center of the testing cycle if you count the pre-cycle in terms of days. I am feeling pretty good about most items. Working with Master Marcus on Staff Form 2 and Bolo Form... I am starting to get it down. Minor mistakes and making changes. I will be ready. I continue to listen to Grandmaster Evins video on Facebook. It is inspirational... basically this is hard so earn it and work hard. Love it... this is what I tell my team as well. No one is going to give you it, so go earn it. It feels better when you earn it. Keep Moving!!!
