The Player's Edge: UPDATE

Hello Player's Edge fans! Thanks for stopping by to read some of the blog postings. I wanted to let you all know, if you don't already, that I'm moved back to Illinois now and tackling responsibilites every day to get the Player's Edge up and running! I am very excited to get things rolling and anticipate being open around the first of the new year.

I haven't blogged for a couple weeks so just wanted to send a quick note! I will leave you with this thought for motivation:

"Ready, Fire, Aim" - This should be your new motto to live by. Rather than the old "ready, aim, fire" that we're all accustomed to hearing. In other words, so many people spend their lives in the "aim" stage that they never actually fire. Many are so afraid of failing and taking that crucial step towards their goals! Therefore, if we FIRE before we AIM, this will initiate the process towards success. We should embrace failure and acknowledge it as an acceptable learning process in our lives. Often times we learn more by failing than we do by our successes. What is the quickest way to hit a target with a gun? It's by getting ready and firing! You may aim briefly but you truly dont know where the bullet will end up until you fire. Then if you miss 2 feet high or slightly to the right, you can re-adjust your scopes and take another shot. Before you know it- you will be hitting the bullseye every time! This is a great analogy to apply to our life goals. Take the step, and then worry about what corrections need to be made. Dont let the fear of failure control your life... "Ready, Fire, Aim"
