WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME?
“No.” It’s a simple word, yet so hard to say. “I really cannot take that on right now.” “No, thank you.” I am not sure where the past week went, but I think it had something to do with being unable to say “no”.

INNOVATIVE BRILLIANCE OR SHORT-SIGHTED PRESENTATION?
My Wine Business class has ended, but it has sparked an ongoing curiosity about business decisions that are made regarding wine.
