A gentleman working at the same post office as my relative is a happy, cheery kind of guy. I met him on a few occassions back when I was basically a rebellious high-school hoodlum. I noticed his pleasant demeanor. And that he was bald - much like I'll likely be in a matter of a few years. His co-workers had nicknamed him "Shiny".
Shiny was assigned a walking route most days. The neighborhood he traversed was quite nice - lined with tall, shady trees for those hot summer days in South New Jersey. When you think of suburbia, you can easily picture Shiny walking - bag in hand - delivering mail to the nice people on his route. Manicured lawns, nice cars, kids playing in the bright and toasty sunshine.

Shiny did his best to quickly beat the fuzzy ferocious creature from atop his unprotected noggin. While no grave injury occurred during this incident, he did have quite a few scratches, needed some medical attention, and received a rabies shot.
This story actually teaches us many valuable lessons that we can use in life and in business.
Rabid Chipmunk Lesson #1: "Take Risks."

However, we cannot overlook this brave, furry, suburban-dwelling animal's actions. The pinnacle of chipmunk achievement was within it's grasp. Did it freeze, uncertain of what to do? Did it seek approval from other chipmunks? No. This scrappy little fellow r
