Downtown Dave is going to make you want to come to the Bay this weekend. Here’s where we think you should stay!
Last Week At The Bay
Another awesome week on Put-in-Bay is over. We do not have many more weeks to enjoy the island this season.
Good Morning America was here on Thursday. The weather didn’t cooperate to do live feeds from the state park, but a lot of people did get some great airtime. I went to the event, and maybe I got my 2 seconds of fame! LOL! I only went to support my community. It might have been a short view of the island, but maybe it will pique somebody’s interest to come and visit us. But all of you that read my weekly column already know what a great place Put-in-Bay is!
Downtown Dave’s Thought(s) For The Week
Thoughts of the week to ponder:
Never make a promise without a plan!
Far too many people make promises they can never keep. They may have the best intentions in the world to keep their promise, but if they have not made a plan to keep it, they will not be able to do it. Business leaders who make promises to employees will not honor them if they do not make a plan on how promises will be kept. If you make a future commitment, you must understand and be willing to do whatever it takes to complete that commitment. One of the reasons that marriages fail so frequently is because husband and wife do not understand what it takes to have a great marriage. They do not plan for or understand the sacrifice’s each must make for the other to enable a long lasting relationship.
Never try to do things alone!
One of the most vital things successful people do is to surround themselves with other successful people. No man is an island, and having a network, a mastermind group, surround oneself with clever people that can make a difference between success and failure. This is true whether it is a business goal or a personal goal.
