Noticed something that I don't think anyone else pointed out: you provide a causative link between a consequence of your behavior and your new-found desire to change it: it's hurting your business. I note this because most of the replies ar

This is sort of a funny question because it's one where answers arising from the brashness of youth just sound brash. The strains of, "The power is all in your hands," just don't ring as true when you actually have to sing them to someone w
