Every day, I enjoy the freedoms that the members of our armed services pay the price for. Like most Americans, I have the desire to show my appreciation. Many people would jump at the chance to show their gratitude, but they do not know where to start. I am more than happy to help guide you in the right direction. Our troops need all of the support they can get.
Although my tour of duty in the U.S. Marine Corps ended in 1991, I have never stopped “serving.” I have been a civilian for 20 years now, but it is always my greatest pleasure to help make a difference in the lives of our military service members and their families.
This weekend, I will be participating in an amazing event in Minnesota, hosted by the Beyond the Yellow Ribbon organization. The BTYR (South of the River) group is hosting a Military Appreciation Day on Sept. 10 at Lion’s Park in Shakopee.

There will be food, games and entertainment, all at no cost! Everyone is encouraged to attend—military personnel and their families, and anyone else who wants to come out, have some fun and show their support for our troops.
I will be joined by dozens of members of the BTYR, who have committed to giving so much of themselves to our troops. Giving back in this way not only makes me feel great, but it is in complete alignment with the foundation of my book, The GOAL Formula.

I am a firm believer that putting the needs of others at the forefront of your life will help you experience a greater life as well. As the new year gets closer, we all have many important goals that we would like to accomplish.
There are plenty of opportunites to support our troops in the San Diego area. For more information on how you can support our troops in your area, email me at erik@thinkgreat90.com or visit www.thinkgreat90.com
