I am a blessed man . I have always did the things that I always wanted do .From the time I was in the 1st grade I wanted to be a major market on air radio personality .I did that for 30 years with success and was happy to go to work everyday of the 30 years .I always wanted to work on the railroad and I did that for 18 years as a conductor ,Brakeman and switchman building trains and even got to drive a train or two . What a feeling of power that you cant explain in words ,you have to live the moment ! I loved the railroad and miss it as well as the radio !The radio was power too ! To talk to 380000 people at the click of a switch is power and a real rush !
I got to do all those things that when I was a kid people would ask me what I wanted to do when I grew up and I would say work on the radio and work on the railroad !
To do the things that you say you want to do you have to have desire ! You have to want it real bad and dont stop striving to reach that goal !
How many people do you know who are doing jobs they really wanted to do ?
We control our lives or we dont !Dont blame anyone for your not reaching your goals in life ! People do what they want in life and then make excuses for the rest !
I never compromised my values and it was because I did not kiss ass to get ahead or to keep my job in radio ! I knew from the begining that radio had no security but the railroad was a secure job making good money and lots of benefits so I did both and was fired and hired in radio from time to time all over town . I did it my way as Frank would say and still had my railroad job and good money to back me up ! God really took care of me because I made it all happen because He gave me the go to to get it done and I did and had a lot of fun in the making !!
Today I am retired and still doing what I want from day to day because I planned it that way from the beginning ."plan anything you do ahead and you will not have a bad performance " on the radio or in your life ! Oh Happy Day ! Plan to have one too and be Happy !!
