Hey everybody! Michael Gebben here and I wanna wish you a very, very merry Christmas. Today,
I don't know how I keep having this happen but every one of these videos seem to happen
on Wednesday, on a holiday, or something special. So this week it's Christmas. Today is Christmas.
I hope all of you are having a very, very merry Christmas and then next week will actually
be January 1st, 2014. People, where did the year go? It has flown, flown by and so, I'm
gonna keep this one short. I just wanna share a couple special videos with you. One, I'm
gonna link up here. It's the 12 Goobs of Christmas, just a fun Christmas video that my family
and friends did last year and then one I just loaded to the channel that you might have
already seen where we were paying it forward. We were paying for people's gas, paying for
people's food, singing them some songs and just surprising them at a place called Eppel's
Pantry here locally. And the lesson I want you to have from that video is the person
who owns that, Jim Eppel. He is an amazing, amazing human being who really takes pride
in what he does and loves his customers.
A story I'm gonna tell you really quickly that he did back in the summer that he was
telling me about. It was super, super hot outside and he went around with a 24-pack
of water and a cooler and said, "I'm not coming back till I've handed every single one of
these out." So he went around finding people on the side road running or walking, or mowing
their grass, or whatever. He just gave them a bottle of water and it was super hot outside.
Just little things like that. Some of you might say, "Ugh, didn't sound too excited
to run a gas station or work at a gas station or whatever" That's not the point. The point
is exactly that. It doesn't matter what you do, where you work, you can go out of your
way to make a difference in someone's life. So I wanna encourage each and every one of
you to do that no matter where you work, no matter what you do, no matter where you live,
anything. Go out of your way. Find that joy in your job. Find that joy in your work and
enjoy what you do and make somebody else smile 'coz that's what you have the power to do,
each and every day, put a smile on somebody's face. It doesn't cost a dime. So, thank you
all for being here and watching these videos each and every week. You guys freakin' rock
and I can't wait for 2014. It's gonna be an awesome, awesome year. Two things I wanna
see. Leave a comment below, what are you doing to pay it forward, to put a smile on somebody's
face. I love some encouraging, fun ideas, of things that I can even try that you guys
do to put a smile on somebody's face and finally, for 2014, I really wanna make sure that these
videos are bringing you the most massive impact, the massive value that I possibly can. I've
got some fun, fun things planned in 2014 but leave me a comment. Let me know what are the
things that you guys really, really, really need? What is it? What is it that I can do
to help you reach your goals and succeed, and have everything you've always wanted come
true? 'Coz anything, anything is possible and 2014, I wanna continue to prove that to
you each and every week. It's gonna be an awesome year guys. Thank you so very much.
Keep rockin'. Have a merry Christmas and a happy new year. Be safe. Rock and roll!
