Mindfire Times

Its been an exciting week for Hollagraphics Design Services (HDS). After years of burning midnight oil, impersonating a technician (cable and environmental) and crafting some of the lamest rants to justify my procrastination.....we launched our site (www.hollagraphics.com) and a blog (www.hollagraphics.blogspot.com). Woohoo! I'd like to thank the good folks at MediaLab, Blogger and my proper peer (my peoples) Jay Baker for all the support during and beyond the build. I'd also like to thank Honda Financial Services for giving me an extension on my car note. Those monies help expedite the process and was greatly appreciated. Of course, now I'm 2 months behind on my payments and a grand away from having $20 to my name. My name? Wholihane. I am HDS' voice of reason, raising, and reaching. That phrasing will be explained over time. What's important now is that you get a clear visual of a small business fighting for its life against the undertow of a powerful Recession. Yes, our eyes get blacker, but our hearts get bigger and beat harder. We've been knocked down but we always get up before the three count, smiling with blood on our teeth and made rigid by adrenaline based ambitions. We breathe deep with broken ribs because we know the brain needs oxygen and the mind wins the war. We never leave the ring. It is always with us. We learn from losing, so we have never lost. How do you define success?
