VO-BB - 20 YEARS OLD!

...this quote just might elevate the motivation!

I am your constant companion.

I am your greatest asset or heaviest burden.

I will push you up to success or down to disappointment.

I am at your command.

Half the things you do might just as well be turned over to me,

For I can do them quickly, correctly, and profitably.

I am easily managed, just be firm with me.

Those who are great, I have made great.

Those who are failures, I have made failures.

I am not a machine, though I work with the precision of a machine and the intelligence of a person.

You can run me for profit, or you can run me for ruin.

Show me how you want it done. Educate me. Train me.

Lead me. Reward me.

And I will then...do it automatically.

I am your servant.

Who am I?

I am a habit.

The one New Year's resolution that I've kept was the I will make no more New Year's resolutions. So far, it's working for me.

I've boycotted cabbage and black-eyed peas for reasons other than olfactory... They haven't brought me sacks o'cash ONCE.

Nice post, Jeff. Hopefully, habits aren't like kids and need to be told something 300 times before they remember it.

Well, they are cliche but they always push me to do better and BE better. My goal for 09 is to network with more of you! I feel so isolated in my studio and need to reach out. I know the VO world is friendly right? Help me fit in..... Wink

My opinion... 2009 will be a bumpier ride than 2008.

Goal for 2009... make it to 2010.

This isn't exactly a resolution, just something I decided would be fun to do. For the next year, for no good reason, I plan to keep a tally of how much of certain staple foods (i.e. heads of lettuce, quarts of olive oil, onions, jars of roasted peppers, pounds of tomatoes, etc. -- mostly the stuff I get at Trader Joe's) I purchase/consume in a year's time.
Assuming I keep it up, some time in early January, 2010 I'll have my answer. Not that it's likely to have any impact on anything.
