Welcome to my blog! This is mainly for short thoughts that may not fit on the rest of the website. Some are topical, some are perspective, and expect a few opinions on the state-of-play in finance. These will be original (no canned comments) unless I share a link that says it better than I can. Enjoy, and let us know what you'd like to see in future posts! ~Skip Helms

Gratitude
Every working day I switch-on the computer to check my
tasks, schedule and what’s happening in the world. Before I even get to those, I look at my
Gratitude List.
Gratitude is a powerful, positive emotion. Reminding myself of all my blessings is the
perfect way to start the day. In this
season of gratitude, I’d like share some of the things for which I’m so
grateful:
- For the courage, kindness and patience of the woman I love,
- For a job I enjoy and the ability to help people who like me,
- To live in a country where I can be as much as I can make of myself and
- To benefit from others who made the most of their opportunities,
- To live in a time of health where things that would have killed me in previous generations were better in a week (although slightly less grateful for the cost of insuring care lately 😊),
- For dear friends and family, both here and gone, who lit my way and
- Parents who taught me to love learning.
There are others.
Thanks so much for the chance to reaffirm just how much I appreciate being
right here right now.
Enjoy all the blessings of the season with the ones you
love, sh
