My special offer for Dec 2 thru Dec 8, 2020 “Listen Better”

Never thought there could be a black Friday sale on Listening. I guess you can buy anything online these days.

 

My wife can argue with me all day, and at the end I have no idea what she was fussing about.
I like NOT listening!

 

Ya oughta mosey on into the thread titled, Boudica. There's a whole lotta listening going on in there !!!

 

I'm ready!

 

I think I'll stick with my selective hearing.

 

Seems to be the theme of the year, doesn't it?

 

If I would of listened to people, I wouldn't be an entrepreneur. **** listening to people

 

I believe most people feel that way. When I told my family and friends I was gonna go out on my own and start a business, they all told me not to. They all made a lotta sense and had great points, but I knew better and refused to listen. A year into it, they all said, what are ya gonna do when you run outta friends and relatives to buy signs ?? Well, here we are..... 49 years later and other than this pandemic covid19 stuff, it's still going nicely. A little slim lately because of uncontrollable things, but that's been there, at me since I started. Ya just move/push on.

 

You just have to choose what you do with the information you receive but listen to it all. Wise people understand the stress that starting a business puts on people, families and relationships which may be the root of their advice. It's not always about money.
My parents all told me not to do it and my business was a dumb idea. 2 years into it my wife joined in because it was losing money. I almost went out and got a night job to appease her. It finally turned the corner but I'm lucky that she did not divorce me yet.

 

Now, just listen to yourself. Mind you, this is all about listening and what you choose to do with said gained knowledge.

You said you're lucky she didn't divorce you, yet, but have you ever thought about how she feels ?? Does she feel lucky she's still married to you and didn't have the guts to bag your a$$ ?? Does she feel stuck..... in a rut ?? C'mon man, there's always a second side to the story. ​

 

We do know she doesn't like it when he whistles the theme song to Inspector Gadget....

 

I was trying to serenade her with my whistling but she just doesn't appreciate the raw talent. Gino, she is far from lucky but if you rub my belly I will whistle a song for you too
