Still in Kauai

Last week I came to Kauai, Hawaii to attend the wedding of my financial adviser (Walter Chao) and was happy to meet his family, friends and other clients. Attending this event and getting to know Walter's family and friends made me realize that I am fortunate to have him on my team and feel a great deal of trust in his character and dedication.

At the wedding I met Walter's astrologer (Joyce Van Horn) who owns Partners in Healing in San Francisco. Does Walter consult with the stars before advising me? I don't know but his advice has been great so far. It was exciting to meet Joyce and learn that perhaps I should go see her and get an astrology reading for myself - it is all about planning after all.

It seems that getting a reading - although it does not predict the future - will assist me in my efforts to develop a solid plan. I will still strive to accomplish tasks accordingly however the stars may tell me when the optimal time is to implement plan items. I will look into it and use it a s another technique to keep me focused on finishing my business plan achieving my objectives.

What would the great management guru Peter Drucker say about this? He would say:

"The best way to predict the future is to create it!"
- Peter Drucker

What's the plan for today? Well the storm has passed and the sun is out so to the Westside I go - today I will spend the day hanging out at Polihale Beach Park. Polihale is the longest white sand beach in Hawaii - 14 miles of nothing but white sand.

There are so many things on my mind to accomplish and for the first time in my life I feel like I am definitely on the right track - just have to be prepared and that means having a plan!

Aloha!
