COACH’S CORNER – UPDATE























The beauty of nature is always refreshing and spellbounding to me. It is amazing what looking at a beautiful flower or even up in the sky at big white fluffy clouds will do to lift your spirits. The picture above is of hibiscus flowers in my yard. I have serveral colors from white, pink, fushia to deep red. On this particular day the pink hibiscus caught my attention and I had to take a picture and of course post it on Facebook. From that posting a discussion brewed and led the the recent blog post below about the beauty secrets hibiscus flower possess. I was intrigued by the beauty of this flower and the big beautiful blooms had opened up to greet me and smile at me to brighten my day. I encourage you all if you need a pick me up look to nature…it will do it every time!

"Delivering Happiness" by Tony Hsieh

You’ve seen them. Perhaps you have even ordered a pair of shoes from them. The story about Zappos is one entrepreneur type book you definitely need to have in your bookshelf.

I read this book last year as part of a book club. It was one of the best books ever. It will re-ignite your desire for your business and to provide quality customer service while building your brand and your business culture.

It will make you laugh as you read along but at the same time you will be able to identify with the budding entrepreneur Tony Hsieh as he goes through challenges while building the Zappos brand.
