Rain Almost Stopped Us
Morning!!!!!!! Yesterday's meeting almost didn't happen but do to commitment we were able to meet and continue to create this wonderful project. Before I go into the story I want to send my prayers and get well wishes to one of our group members Guy. Guy is in the hospital, we are all pulling for you to have a speedy recovery (please keep him in your prayers). Due to the rain it seemed almost impossible for us to have our meeting but we did, not everyone was able to show up but the show must go on. We are making a lot of progress and are in a great space for what we are creating. It’s really amazing the dedication that we are all forming towards this wonderful project. So yesterdays meeting was all about getting the ball rolling and I feel like we did that, we established time lines, dates, activities, contacts, and fundraising. After last nights meeting all of us have a lot of work to do this week and there should be plenty of updates next Thursday when we meet again. Based on the weather the energy in the room had a slight affect on us all I think but we were able to get there and get it in!!! Well I have plenty of work to do and so do the rest of the folks in the group. If you are interested in Junior-Preneurs please email me at ashamallie@yahoo.com . I would like to leave you with this "No More Excuses, Only Solutions".

The Energy in the Room was BANANA'S
Good Morning!!!! And HAPPY FRIDAY!! I have started another blog (clearly I am becoming a blogging fool!!!). This blog is specifically for my newest project and what I would call one of the loves of my life, Junior-Preneurs. Junior-Preneurs is a project started by my friend Randy Burton and basically the movement he has created is amazing!!! We are a group of talented, amazing, head strong leaders brought together to help our youth. What we are coming together to do is help a group of youths develop a business plan that will in return assist them in one day starting their own business. We are preparing for our March 6th pilot date and we are all excited and involved. We meet every Thursday to discuss idea's and really get the ball rolling on this project that we have all decided to make time for. This brings me to last night; if you could have been a fly on the wall in that room! The energy in that room was BANANA'S!!!! It’s an amazing feeling to be in a room with your peers and everyone is in agreeance with what is going on, not only that I could feel that everyone was mentally present. For me it is very inspiring to meet with this group of people because I see that they are all there ready and willing to make a difference and clearly that is something that we are missing in the world. If we can all get involved in something, just take part in some type of change/transformation things would turn around for everyone. There was so much knowledge and leadership in the room last night that it just kept the momentum going through our whole discussion. As we get closer to our date and we progress with this project I will keep you guys up to date. But please just do me one favor; Please stay tuned to what we are doing with the project, because I guarantee you we are a force to reckoned with!!! If you are interested in joining this movement please drop me a line at ashamallie@yahoo.com. In closing I will leave you with this "People find it difficult to be true to their word, so they are true to their story".
