      Hi Stephanie,
      Wonderful and thoughtful article especially with the cat’s cute napping picture. Right when I was browsing through your article, my pet cat was sitting on my lap. How the world is small ! Recently myself and my husband Vasanth were in Harrisburg to be with my bro-in-law Dr. Jayanth Devasundaram (people call him Jay) working in Govt. Health dept. in PA state, By the way I am an engineer, HR consultant and social activist in India. I visited US for an International conference in New Orleans. All the best. We shall catch up again…Regds…Nimmu

    what a great blog, found it via freshly pressed and have found all sorts of interesting stuff to read! I’ve gone from working for someone else to being self employed with my own company in the last six months so its been especially useful to read your thoughts and advice on keeping a routine!

    Very inspiring, especially for someone close to my age bracket. Taking a leap of faith to continue towards ambitions in life requires dedication and tough skin, especially as a recent graduate like myself. Your paving the way for young professionals! Thank you!

    Thanks for stopping by my blog. I think you need to slow down a little. You’re way too young to be this good. Overachievers make us slugs look bad!! LOL

    Thanks for visiting my blog and hitting the like button. You have a very polished and professional style. There’s no doubt your success will grow. After reading your blog about skydiving, I thought it was really your second jump; the first was starting your own business. You’re very good at landing on your feet. : )

      I never thought as skydiving as actually being my second jump–what a smart idea! Thank you for your support, I still need it to keep me going each day!

      What a creative way to look at my “daring jumps”–I hadn’t thought of it like that. Now you have me thinking which one I would consider more reckless and scary. I think they each have their own challenges and rewards in the end….I suppose I just need to keep an eye on landing safely!

    Stephanie,

    I am wondering if you know anything about R.O.W.E (results only work environment)? If you know where I could get more information, I would appreciate it! I have already contacted Culture Rx. Please let me know if you have any other sources or suggestions! I would really appreciate it!

      You’ve actually just opened my eyes to ROWE. It’s almost exactly what I created for myself by opening my own business—just without knowing it! It’s definitely something I’ll look into if and when I’m ready to start hiring help for Bennis Inc.

      I checked out their web site: gorowe.com which seems to provide some good information. I think reaching out to them directly is the best method. Good luck!
