Work Ethic

In the words of Zig Ziegler: "The foundation stones for a balanced success are honesty, character, integrity, faith, love, and loyalty." That pretty much sums up the character of people in my life that I respect the most, and the reason I do what I do. I believe that if you work as hard and as smart as you can to achieve the goals you have set for yourself, the money will follow, you'll have all the love you can handle, you'll have wonderful true friends, and your heart will belong to the Lord. What else is there that matters?
