Don't Look Back

All The Good Times Are Past and Gone

There is a song I heard years ago on Prairie Home Companion titled “All the good times have passed and gone” I liked the song. Great melody, great harmony, bad message.

Based on what happened in 2009, it would be easy to think that the best times are behind us. I’m just not buying it.

Incubating Recover

Between Wayne State University’s TechTown, Smart Start and FastTrack and Ann Arbor’s SPARK, I have met some terrific entrepreneurs with great ideas and real business potential. We are really lucky to have these organizations and their programs in our community. They are pumping out small businesses that are our future and are the basis for our recovery. These new businesses solve real problems and have tremendous growth and earnings potential.

My Personal Recovery

According to my business calendar, my personal recovery is in full swing. I am measurably busier in 2010 than I was in 2009. It’s just how it is.

We'll Be OK!

The message is clear to me. Things are getting better. Good times are still ahead of us. Just don’t look back.
