experience you need INITIALLY - You cant think

Food For Thought
None of us is as smart of all of us. If you are
not surrounded by those going where you aspire to
be, you will likely end up elsewhere. If you
fail to plan, you plan to fail. The results of
the whole are greater than the results of the
sum of its parts. (Ken Blanchard) Coming
together is a beginning. Keeping together is a
process. Working together is success. (Henry
Ford) We must all hang together, or assuredly,
we shall all hang separately. (Benjamin Franklin)
