Thanks Al, we all have our struggles and it makes us who we are. NO REGRETS! Accept I quit college to help provide for my son and I never got to play college baseball which is the only reason I was there. I do have to deal with the "what if" thoughts all the time when I think back. On another note, was it you who asked me about stickers?
Your video popped up in my feed for some reason. Listened to you on 1.5 speed while i made breakfast. Good stuff man hope everything goes well for you and I pray for prosperity and success for you and your family.

Thanks for stopping by and leaving a comment. The delivery was slower than I expected it to be while I was working lol
Thanks for sharing. Sometimes I feel like quitting, but working on building our business so there's a smaller income gap. 🙏 from Andover
08 crash almost destroyed us. I was building houses back then.
