What is YOUR currency?

I began this Medium blog with one major intention: transfer my knowledge and epxerience to my kids, by telling the stories of my life as it relates to my career, so that they can have a place to go to learn from their father should father be no longer available. My own father’s and grandmother’s deaths was the primary motivator, as I have SO MANY QUESTIONS for them which I’m not longer able to ask. I asked my Mother to begin writing me stories, but she was a woman of currency and simply wasn’t able to get it done the way I’d have liked. When I say currency, I mean the definition of currency [0] which means she focused on the current — like my wife, A DO-ER (Just Do It! photo). One of my many pet names for my wife is QON — sorta like in one of my favorite movies Jerry MacGuire. “You’ve got to have the QON!”. QON = Queen of Now. [1] I admire currency in people, because I’m what I call a “Sharpen the Saw” guy. (lookup the story of the sawyers who spent the first 5 minutes of a sawing contest sharpening their saw instead of going right to work on the log). Call me today’s Tom Sawyer, I guess 😆

She’s got the QON! She IS the QON.

I don’t think I’ll do a perfect job in this blog, but I’ll occassionaly stop life and write, and hope it’s enough to contribute to my kid’s life, or hope it somehow makes a difference in someone else’s life. This last part is important…
