Hello everybody:)!!
Wow, it's been a while since I blogged. Tammy and I have been on a whirlwind of trainings.
The Valentine Retreat in Branson was absolutely wonderful. To all our friends who attended, we want you to know we will never forget the special time we enjoyed together. It was you who made it special. Everyone participated and shared. I wish we could have bottled that retreat, and offerred it to the entire world. Thank you to everyone! Special "Kudos" to Valery and Tammy and Stefany for all your hard work of preparation that paid off in improving relationships for all. You are the best "TEAM" ever!
For our corporate teams that we have been with in the last 8 weeks, you should know how proud we are of you. Your work of CSI, Continuous Self-Improvement has been an inspiration to us. You are doing a great job. Keep up the "work". Become your "Very Best!" Keep getting better, with the goal being to bring your gifts and strengths to help as many people as you can.
We arrived home last night from a trip to our nation's capitol. We had the priviledge of training a team from The Pentagon. This is a team that protects the people who protect "The People" of the United States of America, the greatest nation on earth.
With all the negativity in politics and government that is going on in our world, it was sooooooo refreshing to be with a team of people who do the work on the ground every day. Any company in the world would give their eye teeth to have a team like this one. The trust, commitment, loyalty, dedication, discipline, and team spirit they possess, serves as a model to the goodness and character derived from training and service in the military and policing professions. Kudos to each and every one of you on the "TEAM". Thank you for allowing us to serve you with training in Motive. Continue in being "Your Very Best!" Your service to the people of our nation, our children and grandchildren, is deeply appreciated.
I will close out this blog with this thought from our dear friend, the Author and Originator of "The Color Code/The People Code", Dr. Taylor Hartman. Your gifts are given, primarily, to benefit others. Being self-aware will help you use your strengths, and defy your limitations. The aim, in all we do, is to help you create and sustain successful relationships, so that your life, when it is all said and done, will benefit others, and yourself, to the greatest extent possible.
As he so often says, "Bring your gifts to bless the lives of others."
We love you all.
Van and Tammy
About us
- Tammy and Van
- Joplin, MO
- In 1972, we danced at a Back to School dance to the music of Chicago; the song "Color My World." Ironically enough, 31 years later, we discovered "The Color Code," by Dr. Taylor Hartman, a tool that teaches relationship skills, based on the concept of MOTIVE. This tool, along with the grace of God, saved our then perishing 25 year marriage. From the moment we discovered our core colors, our relationship was helped. Because of our real life experience, and the help we received from the knowledge of The Color Code, we seek to give to others a tool which will enable them to create, and/or restore positive, meaningful and successful relationships in their homes, on their jobs, with their kids, and in ALL the relationships of their lives. We have been married for 30 years and have been blessed with four amazing daughters, 2 incredible "sons", and 6 spectacular grandkids! Thank you for visiting us on our blog. May you be richly blessed in all the relationships of your life! A special thank you to our dear friends, Terrie and JR Driskill, Bob Wynne, Taylor and the entire Color Code team! God used you to help us! We LOVE you!
