Happy Thanksgiving from Mark Edward Brown

Mark Edward Brown's Thaniksgiving

     I am into the 2nd day of my Thanksgiving celebration :-)   I celebrated yesterday by serving the Soldiers and Family members from my unit (USACA-K).  I had a great time serving food beside my boss as well as fellow leaders and the incoming Commander, Major Wendy Tokach.

Today is Thanksgiving in the USA so I am celebrating today as well and because I can!  Actually I find something to be thankful for on most any day anyway so I remain in an upbeat mood as often as I possibly can.  People who are energized, living life for a purpose and on purpose, with purpose really gets me energized and when your spirits vibration is high it is contagious and you automatically bring peoples moods up to where yours is.

I spent some time on the treadmill running to one of my favorite music mixes this morning, then I called my Mom, Dad, and spoke with my Wife and Kids as well.  I am going to the gym for a weight workout later, I will probably watch some movies and have dinner with friends later.

It’s nice to have a little bit of down time before the rest of the Holiday season picks up.  I am thankful that you are one of the readers to my blog and I am thankful for your comments and feedback so tell me how your turkey day was and I will blog again soon.

Happy Thanksgiving,

Mark Edward Brown

Happy Birthday to My Bride ~ Kim

Happy Birthday Kim Brown

14 November is my wife’s Birthday, I am fortunate to celebrate it before her this year because I am a few time zones ahead of her.  Unfortunately that means that we are apart however we will be together soon.  I wrote this Birthday poem for her to enjoy and hope that you will leave her Birthday wishes in the comments block below (thanks :-)

Happy Birthday to My Heart and Soul

You captured my heart,
From the very start.
Like a work of art, our
Love stands apart.

Our souls are one,
insecure fears are gone.
Imagining your birthday smile,
please last in my mind’s eye
awhile.

Your heart and soul,
is my sacred scroll.
Warms my heart,
when we’re apart.

On Your day I pause,
your Love is my cause.
Happy Birthday my dear,
I cherish You more and
more each year!

Happenings, with Mark Edward Brown

I have been flat out busy, so busy in fact that I haven’t even had time to do one of my favorite and theraputic activities – blogging!

Fort Sill Sign     I was just given a “heads up” by my friend and fellow collegue who manages assignments for the Military Police Corps that I am headed to Fort Sill in the new year.  I will write more about this future assignment as it gets closer.  Right now the task at hand is to conduct a successful transition with my good friend and true professional, Major Wendy Tokach.  I feel confident and proud of the work that has been done by the Soldiers in my current unit and right now I am savoring every moment because I know that my days are numbered with the “Guardians” of USACA-K.

As you know, I have always had an entreprenurial thirst in my life to reach for and attain levels of success that most common men and women only dream about.  As a leader I have been extremely successful and I continue to experience new highs, insights, and breakthroughs in leading and learning about self-leadership.  One discovery that I have made along the path to super success is that it can be compounded and that when it is shared with another person who expresses and domonstrates that same desire and drive increadible possibilities arise to synergize that shared focus for success.

My wife, Kim told me last week that she was starting a business of her own and that she wanted my help.  We have always discussed operating our own business and in today’s competitive environment it has become obvious that we are suited to run an online business.  Since I am in the military this would have to be her primary responsibility and I could help with marketing, advertising, social networking and tasks like that which will allow her to meet and talk to people both face to face as well as online and over the phone.

Our first task is to find 2 enterprising and like minded people or couples (like us) who want a business that they can take with them anywhere in the world.  A business that does not limit one’s earning potential and in fact, one that teaches how to become a better business man and woman.  A few years ago a business like this did not exist in the virtual marketing world, it only existed offline in the material world where the model for this business has proven to be a billion dollar market.

We found the best business for the both of us and it’s so easy that people talk about and partcipate in the core wealth building activity of it every day, many times a day in fact.  I have found this to be so simple that there are only 4 key questions to ask someone in any conversation and I have not met one person yet who has said no or disqualified themselves from being a consumer or candidate for this lucrative business.

In fact let me ask you just this one question: Do you or anyone you know drink coffee, tea, or hot coco even ocasionally?

Just this past week I gave my wife a new nickname, she is now “The Coffee Queen” and I am happy to be her partner in building a high end direct mail coffee, tea and hot coco business.  Let’s face it, the place you buy your’s from doesn’t pay you back do they?  This one does and it excites me that when I retire from the military I will be able to travel around the world with my wife and business partner (in style) visiting all of our friends, family, and clients and drink a beverage that is not only good for you but tasty as well.Cup of Coffee

Oh yes, there is a health benefit to drinking this coffee, tea and hot coco as well by the way and it’s genius, plus it organic so there is no reason not to like it.  By the way if you or anyone you know drinks coffee, tea or hot coco and they are entreprenurial please link us up, I would like to connect with them and share this incredible product.

I have allot more to share with you however this post is getting a little bit long so I will close for now and write more later.

With my best regards always,

Mark Edward Brown
