For the past 30 years, I've changed my phone message EVERY SINGLE DAY! It's a daily activity, as automatic as brushing my teeth. I actually do 2 unique messages daily: one on my cell phone and one on my landline. The time has come to share them. (Perhaps the time has come to get rid of my landline? 🙂

Hi, it's Friday, April 3rd. Today would have been my dad's birthday. I always remembered my dad's birthday. Always bought him something and he was like every other dad impossible to buy for. And I think when he said the thought was all that mattered, I think he really meant it. He taught me three important things. One more Catholic, as a firefighter, he never took a day off. Even on his days off, he frequently worked. Two, punctuality. My dad was never on time. He was always early. And three, the balance between confidence and humility. My dad lived right on the 50 yard line. His nickname was the rooster because he was so cocky. And yes, he could blend into the woodwork and give somebody else the focus very easily. Now, if your dad has passed away,

how can you take one of the things you learn from him and use it today? And if your dad's still alive, go and tell him what you learned.
