Why Kenny Rogers is My Spiritual Guru
I’m a lyrics person. I consider White Snake’s Here I Go Again to be the anthem of my soul. However, Kenny Rogers is my go to for making serious decisions in business and relationships. His song The Gambler holds more universal wisdom than the Magic Eight Ball.
Know When to Hold ‘Em, Know When to Fold ‘Em
My hubby cleans the cat litter every day. He also tells me I’m brilliant, loves my musical sensibilities and works diligently at being part of a team with me. Easy choice – hold ‘em. Most of the hands I was dealt prior to this winner were a definite fold. The pool guy with a pee fetish, fold. The “artist” who obsessively brought up the one sculpture he made several years ago, fold. The guy with a porn-stache and skinny jeans that wanted me to pull him on a leash around the house, FOLD (love the mustache though).
In a business sense, I’ve got a baby business idea that I’m bottle feeding on a daily basis. I’m not ready to show my cards, but I’m definitely holding them close to my vest. I had to fold several prior projects to get this winning hand. Sometimes you’ve got to give something up that’s not quite right to get your dream idea off the ground.
