Hubby gave me a funny present for my birthday this year (see below). He knows me well and it’s exactly what I needed. I really cannot believe I am half a century old.

This boot camp has really given me the tools to navigate all the challenges life throws at you.

I just wrote about How to Ask for What You Want at work last week. I happen to have a live example to share now which happened outside of work. It is great to practice asking for what you want outside of work to help you better do it at work as well. Here is what happened
We just took a trip to Vegas to visit my husband’s godparents. They are 87 and 89 years old. We decided to stay at the Golden Nugget in downtown Fremont street vs staying with them just so we don’t trouble them too much. We haven’t been to Vegas in 4 years but have stayed at the Golden Nugget before. ...
It may sounds simple to say – always ask for what you want. However I know it’s hard to do.
