The last few years I have heard many people say that they are holding back from opening a new business or starting a new marketing plan because the economy is down. Are you kidding? Now is the perfect time to take a risk. The muscles that you will develop becoming successful during times like this will ensure that you skyrocket when the “economy” turns around. Sure, you have to be more disciplined, more creative and pay a higher level of attention to the details, but shouldn’t we be doing that anyway?

To confirm my opinion, today I read a fabulous quote by Gary Vaynerchuk in his book Crush It. Gary writes, “It’s never a bad time to start a business unless you’re starting a mediocre business.”

So don’t be mediocre. Be passionate, work harder/smarter than you’ve ever worked before (and because you are passionate, you will love every moment of it), and go BIG.

What do you want to do more than anything else in 2011?

I want to transform my traditional mortgage company into a huge, loyal tribe of enthusiastic followers who eat possibility, drink self improvement and breathe contribution to others. As a result of their life change they become my most valuable and passionate sales force inspiring everyone they know to be apart of the City Creek Family. We will CRUSH IT in 2011!!!

“What Happens in Vegas stays in Vegas”….Is no longer true for me! My decedent indulgence when I visit sin city is the amazing Creme Brulee that I eat for “breakfast” at Treasure Island. There are times when I’ve even thought about jumping on a plane just to experience the thick, rich, creamy goodness with a crackle top. That’s until I found a perfect recipe that completely feeds my addiction. This is my own personal “ancient Chinese secret”, but I will share it with you my beloved friends. Follow the directions precisely and you will call to thank me.

Here at City Creek we are not only providing you with healthy mortgages but promoting a healthy YOU as well. Enjoy this little story and recipe from my wonderful wife Tobi. I certainly enjoyed it, then and now!

“Recently, I asked Mike what he would really love for dinner and my heart sank when he answered, “that stuffed Manicotti you made 17 years ago in our first apartment.” All I remember of that meal was sitting on the kitchen floor in a puddle of tears surrounded by manicotti noodles drying out on every possible square inch of counters, floors and appliances. It was a four-hour disaster which resulted in soupy sauce, crusty noodles and a sweet husband who pretended to love it all. I was determined not to be a two-time loser and I am proud to say that I have found a fool proof, amazing manicotti recipe that your family will love. I also doubled the recipe and froze a dinner for later. Enjoy! ” - Tobi Roberts
