EXCLAMATION POINTS

Celebrating Change in 2023

The new year has blown in with a blast – an Artic blast! You know what they say about Texas weather. If you don’t like it, just wait a minute because it will soon change.

Change is what the new year brings, and celebrating change in a big way is what our cover story is about. Dhanani Private Equity Group is celebrating a big change – hitting a billion dollars in transactions! Now that’s a change worthy of a celebration! Read all about this Sugar Land company making their mark in Fort Bend and their remarkable plans for the coming year in our cover story. And congratulations team Dhanani on a job well done! We look forward to what the new year brings to you as you take on Fort Bend. Cheers to change in 2023!

The new year also brings an amazing change at Houston Methodist Sugar Land Hospital – a generous donation from two longtime patients. The Main Pavilion at the hospital has been renamed after Col. Raj and Kanwal Bhalla – the Bhalla Main Pavilion – in honor of their gift to Methodist Sugar Land in recognition of the outstanding care they have received from the doctors and nurses there since 1998. Congratulations to Houston Methodist Sugar Land!

My friend Pete Olson talks about making a change this year in Fort Bend Strong, a definite change for the better. His suggestion? Adding volunteerism to your life. I know firsthand the fulfillment that serving others brings, and I highly recommend it. Read Pete’s thoughts on page 22.

There’s an old proverb that says, “Change is good,” and I, for one, subscribe to that adage. Cheers to change in the new year, and definitely change for the better. Stay focused, Patti@absolutelyfocusmedia.com
