National Cookie Month
HEADS UP – October is National Cookie Month..and Mrs. Fields cookies is offering a free chocolate chip cookie on Oct 1 from 11-1.
Those National days and months can seem pretty obscure. For example, January 15th is national hat day while Jan 18 is national Winnie The Pooh day. Jun 25 is national log cabin day and Sept 29 is national poisoned blackberry day – really.
We just celebrated Brothers Day in our house. A few weeks ago was Sisters Day. Our kids wondered why there is Mothers and Fathers Day, even Grandparents but none for them. Good point, so we created them. Of course, these are good reasons to eat cake, or Mrs. Fields too.
You need not wait for Nov 19 which is Have a bad day day to do something special. In fact, just about any day can be special if you put your mind to it. The calendar is great – New Years, Easter, July 4, Thanksgiving, Marine Corps Birthday, Christmas etc. All great days but you don’t need a calendar to have a great day.
Create your own day at work, or in your life, and work to make more of them special. Dec 3 is national roof over your head day but you can make today a great day, for you and your employees, if you choose for it to be.
OK, gotta go. Sep 30 is national mudpack day and I need to get ready.

"At first I was a bit skeptical... but you were able to slowly rule over my skepticism with your candid stories, accurate information on ‘true’ leadership and your closing statement. “Here are the tools; I have not given you application but merely the tools to be great leaders.” Your stories about the next generation and not forcing them to “pay their dues” really struck a chord as well as your analysis of generation Y and their constant need for information…"
