I met Life Coach, a thirty-something Queens native, through a freelance job from my mentor back in 2007. Since then, he’s given me advice, whether I asked for it or not, and a lot of laughs. The man is a walking t-shirt quip, though he just thinks he’s speaking his mind.
Whenever we speak, there’s always at least one line I try to leave with, much the same way I do during a comedy show. Alas, I’m seldom successful - I know he said something funny, but I can’t remember exactly what. We talked a half-hour last night, and I had the wherewithal to take notes.
Life Coach: Asking four broads what a guy thinks is like asking a vegan how to cook a steak.
And a reminder to keep it real. Real succinct.
Life Coach: I don’t read your blog after the “Continue Reading…” button.
Me: Why?
Life Coach: Because I forget. I just read the part above that part.
Me: So you don’t even read the post? That part is the lead-in.
Life Coach: I read the short version.
