Damn Don! Did I ever say anything to make you mad? I hope not. Ill bet customers never give you any sh**!

Wow Don, I never realized that I was short.
I've always lived by the premise that when God made me he was more interested in quality than quanity. And I'm real humble, too. It's a joke - don't e-mail me.
It was really great being able to meet Don in Orlando - he's just a super guy. The only time I had to calm him down was when he and my son kept talking while I was trying to conduct my seminar.
And thanks for the nice comment Rick. Actually, being short has never bothered me. I don't have the problem of bumping my head on stuff, and I fit into any airplane seat or hotel bed. The only problem is talking to people like Don for a long time and you get a sore neck.
I'll never make it in the NBA but I've never felt limited by how tall I am. Most of the time it never enters my mind....until I see a photo like this. Thanks Don, for keeping me humble.

Ray,
it was great meeting you, too! Sorry about the seminar incident.
And if it makes you feel any better...I hit my head on a doorway once a year, whether I need it or not! The older I get, the less fun it is to be tall. Must be coincidence....a standard American doorway is 6'8" high. Unless I'm barefoot, I have to duck for every one of them.
