The day after Christmas in most parts of the United Kingdom is Boxing Day. Americans don’t recognize the date as anything special but the history is interesting.

Tradition has it that the day after Christmas was the day the servants were presented with a box (gift) of thanks for their service over the course of the year. Last week I encouraged you to say “thanks” to important people in your life. It is not too late.

Look them in the eye, shake their hand, and say thanks for their efforts during the year. (Most of you are closed today so you can do this first thing in the AM on Tuesday OR you can do it this Friday.)

And now for the announcement….I meant to do this last week for you last minute shoppers…BOTH of my books are now available in electronic format. Yes, NO YELLING: The Nine Secrets of Marine Corps Leadership and Construction Leadership From A to Z can be read on your e-reading device. Both Amazon and Barnes and Noble have it in stock. (Of course it is in stock, it is digital!)

Thanks….
