[M.D. Holloway]

Been in Mississippi for the past few days - ran a seminar on operational costs and failure. Had a disussion tonight with one of our best guys - top performer. He asked me a very interesting question "So Mike, let me ask you, what do you think your worth? I don't mean your income but your actual worth in terms of what your bring to the world"?

He wasn't being a wiseass - it was based on a discussion we had earlier. If you considered your self a 959 or a top 1%'r, a quality topbreed dog - would you provide your self with the plenty of rest, good food, exercises, no vices, etc. like how you would treat a thoughbred race horse? Like how you would raise your kids (who are worth billions of dollars in your eyes)?

In light of that, it got me thinking. I do think that I am someone who does provide value and insight, providing value to the world I am part of and in my opinion am worth tons. So I guess I think I am like a 959, a topbreed, a thoughbred. If I had a 959 I can assure you I would use only the best engine oil, the purest fuel. I would not trash it nor would I abuse it. So why not treat oneself the same?
