Happy New Year!

2009 was some year! It was a tough and long year for many of us, including me! We can't change the past be we can make our future! A New Year begins in a few hours! 2010 is a new day and the beginning of a new decade.

I hope everyone has a great 2010, but we need more than hope. Hope just means you're waiting around waiting for something to happen! We can do more than that! We have to make things happen!

So, go out and make something happen! Have a great 2010 Everyone!

Be on the lookout for more blogs with more info, pictures, comments and advice! I promise to write more in 2010!

Thank you to everyone for reading my blog! If you have any ideas or thoughts on what I should write about in the future, please let me know!

Thank You!

Thank you,
Frank

Here is some more information about us.

The BAD BAD Apples are on a global mission to inspire individuals to experience success!

Forming a friendship while working at Community Colleges, Frank Kitchen and Rodger Campbell assisted thousands of students and professionals on the road to personal and professional success. Challenged by these individuals, they developed the popular keynote "Are you a B.A.D. A.P.P.L.E?” What once began as a challenge has turned into an adventure that has taken them from college professionals to full-time speakers. Faster than they could have imagined, they went from writing notes on napkins to performing in front of audiences large and small.

They have a menu full of experiences that offer a taste of success to individuals and groups. Every interactive experience is designed to work as keynote, training session, workshop or consultation.

Invite them to your next event to find out why they believe B.A.D is a way of life!
