Today Marks WiseSize 6th Year Anniversary!

Wow, how time flies!
Where did that 6 years go? Today is Marilyn and my 6th year anniversary from when we first started selling on-line with Ebay. It all started with a 25 cent Ronald McDonald watch we tried just for fun. 20,000 packages later, to friends and customers all over the planet, here we are today and having as much fun as we did with that 20 cent watch!

What has the last 6 years taught us?
1. Anything is possible (if you have passion!)
2. People are wonderful
3. If you keep at it, it will happen
4. A man can learn women's clothing sizes
5. Marilyn is usually right
6. Being in business is not that scary (well, yes it is, but not as bad as I thought)
7. Learning is fun, so is growing
8. A dream is worth chasing
9. There are always people to learn from
10. You need a vacation from time to time
11. You need a reason to be in business besides making money
12. Bad things will happen, get over it
13. Marilyn is usually right
14. Never quit or give up on your dreams
15. Listen to people
16. Learn from examples
17. Learn something new every day
18. Create a vision board
19. Don't listen to anyone who says you can't
20. Listen to everyone who says you can (including yourself)

All You Need Is Love - The Beatles Love Show at Mirage, Las Vegas

Marilyn and I love the music of the Beatles as still do millions around the world. Recently we had the opportunity to see LOVE by Cirque Du Soleil at the Mirage for the second time and it was better than the first! For anyone who likes Beatles music, we recommend this show highly! Here is a video of the making of the show (it does not take anything away from the awesome spectacle that is any Cirque Du Soleil show).



Here is a link to the rest of the videos on the making of Love!

Charisse Pempengco Duet with Celine Dion on Oprah

Every once in a while a talent comes along that just needs to be shared with the world. This little 16 year old girl is that talent! The best part of this moving story is she kept on believing in her dreams and out of poverty and because of the love for her family - A New Star Is Born - She is amazing and so is her story!
