Besides the dna I was born with ....my upbringing by my family is the most important thing of all. They were my role models, teaching me the many things they knew and learned in their lives.
My father and mother promoted, encouraged and displayed independent thinking. Entrepreneur and being your own boss. Working for yourself.
My mom's mother grandma Sarah wanted the best for all of her children, grandchildren and family. She was very much into healthy food, nutrition, exercise, working, keeping the house and yard and cars clean. Dressing nicely professionally. Using caution with the company you keep; choosing friends wisely. She said you will be lucky if you have one true friend in your entire life.
Grandma had ethics and was all about saying and doing the right things. Being honest. She said, "I call a spade a spade. I don't beat around the bush. I tell it like it is. "
