Think Tall!

I came from a tall family on both sides of northern European descent – Norwegian, German, Scottish, Welsh, Irish and English.  My mother is 5’10, father was 6’4, grandfather, 6'7, grandmothers 5’8 and 5’7…I didn’t have a chance!  As any vertically gifted individual will tell you, there’s simply no blending in!

The questions came, “So, do you play basketball?”

I would answer, “Yes, and volleyball too!”

I never really mind the inquisitive inquiries, as they serve as a conversation starter.  In my business, I need an excuse to start a conversation, so it has worked for me.  I must say, as a grown woman, I’m happy with the advice my grandfather gave to me when I was around 13 years old, “Think Tall!” It’s a state of mind, really, for my outlook on life, my positive attitude and the way I want my own children to view their position in the world.  I feel everyone should “Think Tall,” regardless of your height.

Afterall, you don't have to 'be tall, to 'think tall.' (I’ll be selling the T-Shirts later).
