It has been fun to produce great looking business cards for our clients. One of your unexpected successes has been from posting the doTerra independent consultant business cards. 

Independent Product Consultants from across the country have search online for business card ideas and have like the variety of cards we've produced and have contacted us to customize business cards for them. 

Most recently, a client with a printer husband commissioned us to deliver a full set of cards, each with different color schemes and images. Normally this is difficult to produce in bulk but because of the husbands printing capabilities it was possible.

Here you can see the full set. Though it is unique and expensive under normal printing circumstances it is a pleasure to be part of something unique. 

Thank, Glen and Kari. It was a pleasure to work with you.

Local Credit Union Is Doing Things Right

Working on a couple of article for Travis Thompson, manager at Mountain America Credit Union. I was first introduced to Travis through a mutual friend, Bobby Jensen. I became a member of the credit union and have been very pleased with that decision.

One of the reasons why I like Mountain America so much is their mobile app is great. If you do any mobile banking you will notice that most banks use the same platform for their app but they've added some oomph to the app. I have accounts at three local banks/credit unions and their by far more up on technology. Their app is great. Ask me to show you some time.

One of the articles we are writing is to promote their local Logan, Utah branch by providing $100 for those who set up a new checking account with direct deposit and free eStatements. Not bad for a promised great experience.

What are schools for? A Question We Should Ask

"Any system of education, therefore, which limits instruction to the arts and sciences, and rejects the aids of religion in forming the characters of citizens, is essentially defective."

      - Noah Webster, Letter to David McClure :: October 25, 1836

With more and more people questioning the relevancy of our public school system it is refreshing to read Seth Godin's Stop Stealing Dreams. Wherein he sees the broken and outdated system in it's true light of decay. He asks many relevant questions and poses valid points for thought; for instance,

• Column A vs. Column B
Column A (What needs to be taught): Aware, Caring, Committed, Creative, Goal-setting, Honest, Improvising, Incisive, Independent, Informed, Initiating, Innovating, Insightful, Leading, Strategic, Supportive.

Column B (What is being taught): Obedient

• "What are schools for?" A question we should be able to ask and give a realistic answer to.

• "Can we teach people to care? I know that we can teach them not to care." We do that now.

• "As long as we embrace (or even accept) standardized testing, fear of science, little attempt at teaching leadership, and most of all, the bureaucratic imperative to turn education into a factory itself, we're in big trouble"

There have been many on the forefront of the issues facing "the post-job economy" such as Strauss and Howe, Dr. Oliver DeMille, founder of George Wythe University and Dr. Shannon Brooks, founder of Monticello College, but if education was taught in a holistic manner where everything is related instead of in Pavlovian bell ringing segregated labyrinth it may be clear to most everyone what the problems are.

We could teach: right and wrong, good and bad, true and false, relationships, family values, family routines and responsibilities, learning accountability, and the value and love of work or would that be forcing morality on our children?

We could teach: Initiative, Ingenuity, Allegiance, Integrity, Commitment, Passion, Impact if we wanted to but that would take inspiration in teaching not requiring.


To be successful in developing the character of our youth we need the influence of family and religion. For those who believe differently reread the quote by Noah Webster who told us in 1836 what would become of our education system if we ignored this advice.
