The Beginning
Everything has a beginning, and so sorrentomesablog begins. My goal with this blog is to comment on what I see. The trends affecting my industry, the strategies that help my clients, the events that occur in my city, the things that happen in life. One of my favorite quotes comes from The Great One, Wayne Gretzky:
“I skate to where the puck is going to be, not where it has been.”
I think this is one of the keys to success in anything one does. Anticipate what is to come, and position yourself for the best outcome. Truly wise words.
As a salesperson, a small business owner, one who has worked in the scientific community, a resident of a beautiful city in the deep south of California, husband, father, brother, UCSD Alumnus and someone who is highly engaged in making things go, I hope to bring value with my words and comments about what I see. For those that can relate, I have a day to day reality check that drives my actions called making payroll. Those of us who live with this responsibility tend to see things a little differently than most, and I hope to bring that perspective to the mix as well.
Blogging is new for me, although I participate quite frequently on an assortment of email listserves and am no stranger to speaking my mind.
I have a presence on LinkedIn: http://www.linkedin.com/in/sorrentomesa
Twitter: http://twitter.com/sorrentomesa
and Facebook. I would encourage those who read my blog to leave comments and share your thoughts as well. This looks like it could be fun.
Scott,
Congratulations on your first blog post.
Hey Scott-Glad to see you here blogging! I think you have a flair for writing, so this should come easy to you. It’s just finding the time!
Best wishes, Pam
Not only do you have a flair for writing…you certainly have some cred in the printing realm. I’ll look forward to checking in from time to time! Congrats, Scott!
Welcome to the world of the (virtual) written word! My comments will come from your diagonally opposite coast (OK, I can’t see the ocean from here, just the Sound), but the juxtaposition should be interesting.
Glad to see this part of your digital world! No doubt this blog will be a “Best in Class” work, I’m looking forward to reading your blog entries!
