Keep Learning

One of the reasons I started this business was that I felt it would put me in a good position to always be learning and challenging myself. Apparently it's working and here's why.

I sent samples to BIG company about a month ago per their request. A year or two ago I would have hoped to have an email from them a day or two later. When I sent off the samples this time around and was asked by friends when they thought I'd hear back I said I was hoping to hear something by the end of the month.

So the end of the month has rolled around and I haven't heard anything. Normally I would be off the wall by now. Instead I opt to send them a quick email followup yesterday. Again, a few years ago I would have expected an email response right away. Now I figure if I don't hear anything in the next 2-3 weeks I'll followup again.

If patience truly is a virtue it's nice to think I may actually be getting a little bit more virtuous.
