Airport Bookstore Wisdom...

Now and then the best plan of "attack" on your business might be to just kick back and do nothing. Just relax and ponder...
by Skip Cohen

Okay, I admit it, I'm about to steal a line from one of those cheap impulse-buy books they have at every airport bookstore in the country. They were trying to get $20 for one of those stick figure "Life is Good" books....well, life is good, but not if you're moronic enough to buy a book with all the lines your grandmother already told you years ago!

But obviously it was good enough to give me an idea for a blog post.

                                                   "Sometimes doing nothing is the right thing!"

Here's the context I'm using it in at the moment.  I'm always talking about how photography is a career choice where you never stop learning, but that's true for any business. However, some times you need to just kick back and let the dust settle before you start something new. You just need a break.

So, that's the recipe for me this weekend - I'm simply doing nothing but ponder the meaning of life. I'm going to just relax, enjoy time with my honey and think about everything that's going on in this amazing industry.  We never stop learning - about ourselves, our business and our friends. 

Wishing all of you a terrific weekend. Hug your spouse, kids, friends...the produce guy at the market if he looks like he needs it! LOL  Just make it a great weekend and as good buddy, Matthew Jordan Smith always says, "Dream Big".
