You’re a go-getter and that is an important trait in a person; to know what you want and how to get it. Would like to add your link to my blog, if you don’t mind.

Thanks to everyone who commented on this post.

Some of you I know in person, others I’ve never met. Regardless, your words of encouragement are very much appreciated.

Cheers to successful lives and happy endeavors,
Alexa

Hi Alexa,

You don’t know me. Stephanie had forwarded your post and asked me to read it. She also told me that your post had reminded her of herself when she was younger.

All I can say is Wow! You have figured out things that it takes many people a life time to learn. Stay on the path you are on now and you will no doubt be successful in life on you own terms. In fact you are already succeeding.

Yup, still a trubie. You’re luck you got things sorted out so early on, young lady. Anyway, right now I’m working up an idea of a second-hand bookshop. This will comfortably the worst paid job I ever got near, and that in itself suggests it will end up happening. I can imagine the place now, and if we break even that will be enough! I thought you may be entertained that my current target demographic includes you and Maria – the idea just jumped into my head when I imagined who I wanted to buy my books, and right off I decided we had to have totally free no-strings WiFi. How to sell old books in a Web 2.0 world is probably not a million dollar question, but it may pay my rent.

Do good things with the bee people. You’re a new star to add to their constellation, and I’ll look up to you there. : )

Alexa – it was my honor and pleasure to have your support this summer. You are truly an amazing, kind soul, and I’m so glad our paths came together. Your definition of success rings true for me, and it is what I am most grateful for in my own life – a positive spirit that seeks to grow, learn, give and love. We all thank you for the reminder! It’s important to slow down sometimes and realize. you have all that you will ever need – inside yourself!

All the best with Mzinga, Barry and the gang in Boston. We miss you in NYC, but I know you will visit often….

zomg – BoltBus FTW!!

hugz,

Finding a career you love is key, you’re so right! Thanks for sharing your thoughts on success, I agree on so many levels. Social media allows us to help others constantly and that NEVER stops feeling good
