Persistence
It pays off because I met with a reporter who liked my idea and will write a story on the October project. "Making Work, Work for Everyone" is a wonderful way to recognize October as National Disability and Employment Month. People like to be recognized and have articles in the paper so I will enable that to happen. Now, I have to wait until I get approval for OVR to get on board. If not I do have a Plan B, just doing my usual type of program. I will emphasize employer information rather than have a forum which will be more interesting and lead to more employers "jumping on the bandwagon. I also found a man from my temple who knows people with big names hopefully (just 1) will be receptive to lending his name to Infobility as a sponsor. Then this program will become all it was meant to become. No longer will it be "the little engine that could" so to speak it. I will have reached the top of the hill and it will then all be downhill. It will have taken 30 years to get to that point. No overnight success here.
