My father was an airline pilot, first for Western Airlines and then when they merged with Delta he flew for them. He loved his job and would often comment that he couldn’t believe they paid him for doing what he loved so well. He would tell us, Brand Viagra do what you love and you will never work a day in your life. There is a lot of truth to that adage.

Our son was a mediocre student. He did well, with little effort, rarely applying himself. At every fork I the road I would tell him that from here on he wouldn’t be able to coast, he would have to apply himself. When he finished elementary school I told him that he would have to start doing homework to keep his grades up, he didn’t and still did well. After middle school I told him he couldn’t coast through high school he would have to apply himself, dig deep and put forth a little more effort, he didn’t, and still did well. I was frustrated, I wanted him to learn how to work, to sacrifice a little cialis cheap for his education, to learn how to study hard and to work hard. He didn’t. After high school he want to college and finally he had to study, work and sacrifice, but not too much. His heart was never in it. He made decent grades, but never fully applying himself to the task.

Then life changed for him, half way through his sophomore year at the University, he decided he wanted to go to an exclusive design school in Orange County, CA and go into the field of fashion merchandising. From that day on he became on fire; a total transformation took place. The school is financially out of our range, as expensive as medical school, he was on his own with our support and blessing. He applied, put forth tremendous effort on his acceptance project and much to our delight was accepted. Now the question was a matter of paying for the school. He took a job with a security system, after undergoing rigorous security awareness training, business practices, salesmanship courses he is out knocking on doors selling security systems.

During the first three weeks, he sold only a single unit. Guys went home, they gave up, they lost sight of why they were there. Not our son, for the first time I saw him so fired up nothing could stop him. He is now the top salesman for a first year rookie. He has a dream, a fire, a passion and he is making it a reality.
