My Friday Story by "As a Man Thinketh"

INSTRUCTIONS FOR A WONDERFUL, FULFILLING LIFE

1. Give people more than they expect and do it cheerfully.

2. Memorize your favorite poem.

3. Don't believe all you hear, spend all you have, or sleep all you want.

4. When you say, "I love you", mean it.

5. When you say, "I'm sorry", look the person in the eye.

6. Be engaged at least six months before you get married.

7. Believe in love at first sight.

8. Never laugh at anyone's dreams.

9. Love deeply and passionately. You might get hurt but it's the only way to live life completely.

10. In disagreements, fight fairly. No name-calling.

11. Don't judge people by their relatives.

12. Talk slowly but think quickly.

13. When someone asks you a question you don't want to answer, smile and ask, "Why do you want to know?"

14. Remember that great love and great achievements involve great risk.

15. Call your mom.

16. Say "bless you" when you hear someone sneeze.

17. When you lose, don't lose the lesson.

18. Remember the three R's: Respect for self; Respect for others; Responsibility for all your actions.

19. Don't let a little dispute injure a great friendship.

20. When you realize you've made a mistake, take immediate steps to correct it.

21. Smile when picking up the phone. The caller will hear it in your voice.

22. Marry a man/woman you love to talk to. As you get older, conversational skills will be as important as any other.

23. Spend some time alone.

24. Open your arms to change, but don't let go of your values.

25. Remember that silence is sometimes the best answer.

26. Read more books and watch less TV.

27. Live a good, honorable life. Then when you get older and think back, you'll get to enjoy it a second time.

28. Trust in God but lock your car.

29. A loving atmosphere in your home is so important. Do all you can to create a tranquil harmonious home.

30. In disagreements with loved ones, deal with the current situation. Don't bring up the past.
31. Read between the lines.

32. Share your knowledge. It's a way to achieve immortality.

33. Be gentle with the earth.

34. Pray. There's immeasurable power in it.

35. Never interrupt when you are being flattered.

36. Mind your own business.

37. Don't trust a man/woman who doesn't close his/her eyes when you kiss.

38. Once a year, go someplace you've never been before.

39. If you make a lot of money, put it to use helping others while you are living. That is wealth's greatest satisfaction.

40. Remember that not getting what you want is sometimes a stroke of luck.

41. Learn the rules then break some.

42. Remember that the best relationship is one where your love for each other is greater than your need for each other.

43. Judge your success by what you had to give up in order to get it.

44. Remember that your character is your destiny.

45. Approach love and cooking with reckless abandon.

Doesn't this quote go right along with our Million Dollar Action plan, and Zeke!

Age wrinkles the body. Quitting wrinkles the soul.

by Douglas McArthur

(Zeke, this one is for you, as our 29 year old Gem!)

Meg Friedrich

Meg Friedrich earned her MusB with Distinction in Music Education from The University of Michigan and has had a long, country-wide career in flute teaching and performing. She is currently in her 26th year of playing flute and piccolo in the Pioneer Valley Symphony, rated #1 in Western Massachusetts, and does other free-lance performing throughout New England, as well as teaching flute at various secondary schools in her area.

Over the years, she has done considerable secretarial work and also owned and operated a Bed & Breakfast for ten years.

Because she is an entrepreneur at heart, when she was first introduced to network marketing 10 years ago, she was very attracted to the concept and all it includes: the freedom of working from home, getting paid according to what you do (rather than what your boss thinks you’re worth), self-development, and people helping people.

After a varied networking career, she is thrilled to have found her home with Gano Excel and the CoffeeTeamOnline gang ~ a system that truly has its entire act together! She is honored to be a part of the company ~ and the team within the company ~ that is destined to make history!

Meg and her husband, Eddie, live out in the boonies with the deer and wild turkeys (but in a five-college area), overlooking the Deerfield Valley and the Shelburne Hills.

Quote of the Day...

There is a little difference in people, but that little difference makes a big difference. That little difference is attitude. The big difference is whether it is positive or negative.

Zeke & Jean Hanzl... part of our Healthy Coffee RV gang!


Zeke went to Gettysburgh College, Pa. after his grammar school years and Jean went to Mrs. Skinner's Secretarial School but left after a few dull months and went to work in the mailroom of Doubleday Publishing Co., Garden City. More dullness, so ended up commuting from home in L.I. to N.Y.C. working in advertising.

Later, living and working in the City was even better because that is why Z & J met one evening in the N.Y.C. Port Authority building while waiting on line to take the bus out to N.J. By that time Zeke was working in his father's commercial art studio in the City and living in Cranford, N.J. (That's where Jean's family had moved to live) so the twain did meet. Zeke worked as VP of Marketing for Staff Builders, Inc., a national temporary staffing service before we dropped everything to do what we knew was right for us and our family at that time...Vermont!

We lived in Upper Montclair, N.J. for the first seven years of marriage and created two children. We acquired four dogs and decided we needed to live a different life-style. Vermont was the answer. So in 1971, we took the plunge. At first we were considered "odd" in our little country farm village (being city people) but eventually we were fully accepted and it truly became our village, as well. Zeke eventually became Deputy Commissioner of Economic Development for the state of Vermont under our first woman Governor, Madeline Kunin, while Jean ran a business called "THE OLD FIREHOUSE ANTIQUES, YARN & CRAFTS CENTER,which we owned.

Eventually, we moved from Craftsbury and came to the Burlington area where Zeke has just retired from his work as Canon For Ministry Development for the Episcopal Diocese of Vermont. We will now devote our time to our wonderful new enterprise, Gano Excel, USA ... HEALTHY COFFEE.

Always Onward, or as zeke might say in his former life, "ad astra per aspera".

Postscript: Perhaps sometime we'll share some of the unusual happenings our lives have encountered during our never dull country life (if you dare to listen) ... goats, ghosts, 4-H, headaches and always new challenges.

Great fun at 2nd Gano Family Re-union!

My team and My CJ are MY WHY! Love you All!
Just wanted to thank everyone who was able to make it to the Healthy Coffee Party on Saturday, and we missed those of you who couldn't! It was great fun hearing and sharing everyone's dreams and funny stories, and incredible health changes--- all due to coffee (of course, reishi coffee, type in a google search on "ganoderma" or "reishi" to find all the amazing health benefits!)!!! Especially great seeing our friend and gano sister's husband actually starting to "wake up and smell the coffee!" and share with his own circle of friends! That will be especially fun to follow- he's even offered his home for upcoming Healthy Coffee/Football Parties, keep you posted on those!! I want you all to know how ever grateful I am to have you as part of our Gano Family! I can't wait to see where we are 6 months and one year from now! Feel free to post goals, and progress! (Of course, plan of action as well)... and remember the properties of a good Goal... They're S.M.A.R.T. (specific, attainable, (ANYTHING is attainable with our team!) measureable, realistic, and time sensitive!).

Blessings, and Love, To All of OUR Success!

Carrie & CJ, and all of your Gano Family!
