Recently I wrote an article for our NBA newsletter. In collecting information for my article I asked a few of our customers about success. Mr. Jimmy Jenkins said he wanted to give it some thought. Two days later he stopped in to leave me his thoughts.
"It is my observation that if one is to be successful in one's profession and personal life two of the most important traits are a good attitude and a strong faith. A good attitude will have a positive impact on one's career by helping to develop a sound work ethic and a meaningful relationship with others. The individual possessing these two qualities will "stand out" above the crowd. Regardless of one's position in life adversities will come. This is where faith enters. Faith is defined in Hebrews 11:1 as the confident assurance that something we want is going to happen. It is the certainty that what we hope for is waiting for us, even though we cannot see it ahead." - Jim Jenkins
With every passing day, I realize how much I love working with our customers. When I take the time, which is not very often, I really learn from them.
Best Wishes for a wonderful weekend,

Bring on Summmmmmmer!
Summer is almost here. Frankly it feels as though it's been here for quite a while already! I'm referring to our extreme temperatures here in Central Arkansas. Wow, is it already this HOT?
It seems like our Spring skipped us, going from our mild Winter straight to Summer. I must confess, Summer is not my favorite season. Sure, I love a good pool or lake day, but 73 degrees all year would be just fine with me. However, I will tell you some of the things I do enjoy about Summer.
Even in late May, you can hear parents and children all a "buzz" about where they are going on vacation. There are kids getting to enjoy camps, such as Beginning Basketball or Fashion Jewelry camp, like my niece Macie attended this week. Everyone shows off their tan in their newest, casual sandals and shades. I see people riding by with their convertible tops down and their music up. My birthday is also during the Summer, that doesn't hurt either.
Over at our Pershing and Main St. location in North Little Rock, they are showing their favorite things about Summer as well. Gretchen would love to invite you to stop by and let her know your favorite thing about this time a year. Also, be on the look out for our popcicle and lemonade Fridays during these hot months!
See you at the pool,
Kimberly
P.S. Don't forget Summer also means we are 6 months from Christmas. It's a great time to open a Christmas club account to save those $$$$!
