Security vs freedom
At the SendOutCards Executive Retreat this past weekend there was a field trip to Alcatraz Federal Penitentiary. Alcatraz is now a federal park with daily tours.
From what I've heard a lot of the talk afterward was about freedom. I guess that being in a place where most of your freedoms were taken away gives people the chance to think about the freedoms we take for granted.
A lot of people think that the more security you have in your life, the more freedom you'll be able to enjoy, whether it's job security, Social Security or personal security. But the opposite is true, the more security you have, the less freedom you'll have. In fact, who has the least freedom? The person in a maximum security cell.

Blog topic request
I've had a request to do a blog post on door to door selling. It's not something that I've done in years, but if anybody has any tips or techniques that they'd like to share, I'd appreciate them.
