Thank You

Good Afternoon, QuickBooks Community! How are you feeling today? As one of my favorite songs lyric goes,  " I'm feeling blessed, never stressed...". Anyway, since it is Small Business Week, I decided to dedicate this post to you. For those who may not know what Small Business Week is, the US Small Business Administration celebrates this time to recognize the contributions of entrepreneurs and small business owners.

I would like to personally thank every one of you that help make this economy what it is. Interestingly enough, there are 27 million small businesses in this country, and you generate about 50 percent of our Gross Domestic Product.  Aside from this, I appreciate you creating jobs, being innovative and creative, and providing opportunities for many people. I encourage you to take the time to celebrate all that you have been through the years.

With 2020 being a challenging year especially, you did the best you could do. Some were able to adapt and create different business ventures that are doing well! All the long sleepless nights and uncertainties, you remained a pillar. So, if you don't hear this much, thank you for all you do. I see you, and I am rooting for you! All in all, I urge you to reflect on your journey thus far and get excited about the future!

I want to leave you with a great quote by Albert Schweitzer  "Success is not the key to happiness. Happiness is the key to success. If you love what you are doing, you will be successful." Until then, my Community comrades, continue to be safe and be well!
