Acworth, we are officially halfway through the year! Time flies when you are having fun and paying the bills. This month, I have a special message for Acworth business owners and anyone who would like to start a business. As many of you might know, I am a financial adviser, and I have the privilege of instructing people about investing their time and money. And I have a hot investment tip just for you — invest in yourself. We serve each other, day in and day out. We put others’ needs ahead of our own. We share our expertise. We offer guidance. We take care of our community, but do we take care of ourselves? Investing in yourself is so important, as we need to recharge our own batteries. 02

I have found three great ways to offer an excellent return on your self-investment. TEXT BOX 1. Develop your skills. You have something special, so build on it. We all were put on this earth to serve in different ways. Advance your education within your field. Utilize training that is available. Expand your knowledge — we don’t know what we don’t know. Exercise your brain, and stay current on the world around you. It’s not IF change will happen; it’s how fast change will happen. TEXT BOX Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit, sed diam nonummy nibh euismod tincidunt ut laoreet dolore magna aliquam erat volutpat. Ut wisi enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud 2. Explore your creative side. Try new things. I’m not telling you to become a sculptor or a painter, but you can learn a new language or take a gourmet cooking class. Express yourself through words by writing something or try growing your own garden. Enjoy the sound of music, whether you make it or just listen. Do something that opens up the other side of your brain and allows your day-today brain to relax. 3. Nurture your mind and body. Take time for yourself. Turn off and unplug. Take a vacation, visit family or just set aside Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit, sed diam nonummy nibh euismod tincidunt ut laoreet dolore magna aliquam erat volutpat. Ut wisi enim ad some quiet time to meditate and search your soul. Ask yourself, “What do I want to do for me?” For some, the answer could be minim veniam, quis nostrud religion. Others might be taking the next flight out of town. Some will join a business association and find a connection that changes their life. For goodness’ sake, at least take a nap.

Whatever your investment in yourself is, the Acworth Business Association is here to embrace and support you. If you invest in the ABA, I promise you will like the return. I haven’t met a group of people more willing to help everyone around them succeed. Invest in yourself, and maximize your momentum, Acworth!02
