Thought I would share this little story that I read about Pablo Picasso a long time ago…Picasso

A French woman saw Pablo Picasso enjoying a cup of coffee in a Parisian restaurant took it upon herself to approach the great master and insisted that he put down his coffee and make a quick sketch of her…

He very graciously obliged her. When he was done…she took the drawing and slipped it carefully into her handbag.

She removed her billfold and asked him ….

“How much do I owe you…???”

Picasso replied….

“$5,000 American dollars”

“$5,000 DOLLARS,”  she echoed back at him STUNNED…

“But…it ONLY took you THREE MINUTES to do the sketch !!!!”  she sputtered….

Picasso responded…

“No madame… It did NOT…. It took me ALL OF MY LIFE !!!”

This is a lesson that I learned the HARD WAY !!!

NEVER undervalue the LIFETIME of EXPERIENCE YOU  bring to the transaction !!!

I hope YOU get the point….
