100% Winners - Class of 2009
Tuesday, July 7, 2009
This post is late but I wanted to share this with everyone.
I had the pleasure of representing the Alumni family at the 2009 HIP graduation. It was a fun, amazing day and I'm glad I had the opportunity to speak this year's class at the beginning during orientation and the end of their Hallmark experience. They are the first class to graduate 100% of those who entered the review process and their work speaks for itself. I'm glad they allowed me to be considered an honorary graduate which means I graduated twice (that's a first too!) I'm also glad to call many of them friend. Just want to share a few words that I shared with them:
Because the client has a need, we have a job to do.
Because the client has a choice, we must be the better choice.
Because the client has sensibilities, we must be considerate.
Because the client has an urgency, we must be quick.
Because the client is unique, we must be flexible.
Because the client has high expectations, we must excel.
Because the client has influence, we have the hope of new clients
Because of the client we exist.
.........................
Quitters never win and winners never quit so decide for yourself what you are made of when things get tough. You can "Plan B" every endeavor you pursue but there is no Plan B for passion, there is no Plan B for heart and there is no Plan B for desire. You either have it or you don't. You either want this or you don't. You've invested a lot in yourself and the return on that investment is up to you. You are all winners and I know you will do well.
Congratulations again! Well done.
As always, visit the Nashville Wedding Photographer's website for more of my work.
