Although he was dressed in suitable business attire,he was extremely overweight. This bothered Jenny for tworeasons.

As a licensed massage therapist and business coach I am oftenapproached by other therapists who are currently employed in aspa, a clinic, or possibly a chiropractor's office, and wouldlike to transition into going into business for themselves.I, of course, am passionate about having your own business asI've done it pretty much all of my working life.

When "perfection" is the goal it is usually out of anexaggerated desire to be right, to avoid ...
