2. My new job offer comes with a need for me to relocate to another country. I knew that relocation was a possibility when I interviewed, but I didn't know it meant possibly leaving the United States. Should I take the job anyway and wait for an opportunity to transfer back to the U.S. at a later time, or should I just decline the offer and keep looking?

57. Give Me My Gift Basket

Business Idea For Young Entrepreneur: A child could start a gift basket business. When my daughter was 10 she wanted to go to her favorite amusement park. I let her know that the only way she could was to sell gift baskets for $10 a piece. Within 30 minutes she sold all of the gift baskets. I let her handle the interactions with each customer. After the successful event she was able to go to her fun place and return home with some extra cash.

About WOE Enterprise

A few years ago my life hit rock bottom. I looked into the bible and I saw the word woe. I also wanted to see how the dictionary defined woe. Woe meant trials or tribulations. In life a woe to you might be a job loss and to another it might be a broken relationship.

One day I was thinking how I could reinvent my life so I wrote down the word woe on a piece of paper. As the document spoke to me it revealed that woe now meant WOE as in Word of Encouragement. From there I received this slogan.

“Before you leave work or go to sleep tonight, give someone a WOE, a Word Of Encouragement.”
