Friendship, lessons learned and treasured

Friendship, lessons learned and treasured What friendship is Friendship What friendship is A month ago, I blogged about the passing of Mrs. HRNasty. She was my  best friend and  proofed these posts. The past couple of months have been a blur and I wouldn’t have gotten through it without some amazing friends both old and new. I have learned a lot about myself and specifically about  â€œfriendship” and wanted to share the stories. The support we have received from old friends and new has been nothing short of amazing. So many people selfishly gave their time and energy to help Adi and myself, and although not enough, this post is the least I can do. In addition to the circle of friends I know and trust, there are friends we haven’t seen in years that helped. There are also friends of Mrs. HRNasty who I had never met and made me feel like a long-lost friend. So let me start with Thank you for your friendship.     LaurenP:   As always, you were there for me when I needed support. There were a number of tasks I really didn’t want to face alone, and you made sure I didn’t have to. You cried for me and you made time for me on very short notice to help. You made sure the paperwork was taken care of when I couldn’t think straight. Mrs. HRN always loved and trusted you. She appreciated  that you have always looked out for me over the years and I know she would have thought it was perfect you were there for me now.  How can I ever return the favor?  Thank you.   TianaB: Thank you so much for all of your support. Whenever we met, you were always there with a big hug and smile. You always make me feel like I matter. The birthday surprise was a great touch. It is hard for me to accept help or kindness and your text (below with permission) was perfect and helped many sleepless nights and made it easier to accept help. Thank you for your gift. You’ve always been the wind in our sails, so helping you through your storm really is an honor. You’re the strongest person I know. And I know you’d get through this nightmare without the help. But allowing us to give you and hand is. . . there are no words. We love you. And we’ll do anything we can to make this dark time a little brighter. KeithS: You called every day, hoping I wouldn’t answer the phone and would get my VM because you didn’t know what to say. Despite knowing it was a hard call, you made it and were there for me. Even though you were across the country, I knew you would do anything you could. I knew those calls would be emotional and as much as I didn’t want to pick up, I did.  You have done so much for my career and financial situation. If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t have been able to take the time off to stay with Mrs. HRN or successfully fight the paperwork battles.  You are an amazing friend. Thank you! Winning 1st place Best Place to Work. KeithS, JeffM, and HRNasty JeffM: I think you take pride in the fact that folks don’t always take you seriously. By now you know I look at you as one of the smartest technologists in the city and the guy that will always care. You were one of the few people who visited us in the hospital last year and the guy that made it out this last cycle. Leaving  groceries on the front porch in an effort to respect our space. You have a lot of style Brother and it is great knowing you are in our corner. I know you will always have my back.   Thank you. YorkB: What can I say. As a CEO, you were “soliddddd”. As a friend, I couldn’t ask for more. You checked in, you gave us space. You brought your son to help us move furniture when we needed room for hospital equipment and brought in AC when we had the heat wave. The bags of gourmet meals were over the top. Your entire family was there for us and the love they showed was unquestionable.  Thank you. KaityS: I really appreciate  what you said about not knowing Mrs. HRN. You explained that she helped me grow over the years and so you feel that you grew through her because you grew threw me. Pretty special.  She watched you grow up, loved going to your Cheer competitions, and was always in awe of your maturity. I know I will be reporting to you someday, and despite that, you treat me like an equal and a colleague. Thank you for keeping me company and allowing me to show you “My Seattle” these past few months. I look forward to seeing “Your Manhattan”.     KathyM, JamieM and JennyM: You have been Mrs. HRNasty’s friend for over 20 years. We have watched your children grow up and the circle is now complete because Jamien and Jenny were there for the both of us. When we were in the hospital, you treated Jane as the longtime friend she is and not as a patient. The conversations the three of us shared were normal everyday conversations and not focused on our condition or the negative. Jamien and Jenny, provided the same. Jenny, had just met Mrs. HRN and had a way of making everyone feel so comfortable during a stressful time. She radiates inner beauty and they are one of the most attractive couples we know. Even though your schedule was filled with travel, you made sure we were taken care of. The help you provided for Mrs. HRN’s celebration was amazing. I didn’t have to do a thing. I know you were much closer to Mrs. HRN, but you, your husband and your children made me feel like I was just as close and part of the family.   Thank you. MattW: Dude, I don’t know what to say. You have taken care of me on so many fishing trips over the years, it makes sense you would take care of me now.  This is what friendship is all about. You figured out how to host close to 200 guests at Mrs. HRN’s celebration with an award-winning chef on very short notice. Without complaint  drove 70 miles one way every day for a week just to check in on me. I saw you cleaning up after Adi the morning of the celebration so the place would be respectable. Despite being  against the celebration being scheduled so early because I didn’t have the heart to clean up the place after everyone left and you made sure I didn’t have to do a thing. I really don’t know how to thank you for everything. You always know when to push me. Taking the trip to Montana was another example. A box of Series P No. 2’s wouldn’t be enough.  Thank you. Leisl:  As always, you took the time out to listen to me when I had a moral dilemma and was questioning my direction. Knowing you will listen and call me on my bullshit is a luxury that not many have. You always find a way to steer me back on course with a carrot instead of a stick and as the guy that is usually counted on for guidance, I appreciate it more than you know.   Thank you for the peace of mind. Clinic on Montana waters JoeW:  I was hesitant on the Montana fishing trip because it was so soon after, but really glad we went. It was great to hang out with you, see Ke’lah and meet the little ones. I don’t know what I would have done back home for my birthday and am really glad I could share it with you and the Donkey. I learned a ton from you as always watching you cast tiny bugs to rising fish across multiple currents 2 inches off the bank. You are a Jedi. As the smaller guy on every trip, I don’t fish from the front of the boat much, let alone all day. I couldn’t have asked for a better birthday or a better fishing trip.  Thank you, Brother!   Ke’lah, thank you for giving him up for three days. With a newborn in the house, I know it isn’t easy. (Well, I don’t know, but I can imagine).   Thank you to all 4 of you. AnnaL: For sharing your Beyonce concert stories with us during your visits to the hospital. You treated us as friends and not as patients. You made us laugh and shared your personal stories and in the end, you took our minds off of the present situation. We both really enjoyed it when you visited us. You were comfortable with your self, the situation and didnt treat us differently. Thank you!   Megan and JillB: When I really needed help taking care of Mrs. HRN, you magically showed up on my doorstep and took the initiative. I didn’t know what to do with myself. It was the first time in months that I actually sat down and didn’t have to do anything. I didn’t feel guilty about resting because you had the situation in hand. You validated the medication and our evening with Mrs. HRN was the last night where she was communicative. She articulated to us that she wasn’t in pain and without your medical background; I probably would have taken a different path. You held my hand and not only let me cry you encouraged me. As a guy from a culture that isn’t supposed to show emotion, I felt safe. You always found a way to see the glass half full. Thank you. MichelJ: Dude, what can I say? You really gave me a sense of pride when so many of Mrs. HRNasty’s colleagues continued to show up and visit us at the hospital. In the HRNasty house, I am usually the one focused on career, but all the support, visits, laughter and dinners reinforced to me that Mrs. HRNasty had a career to be just as proud of.  I know she was proud that she had so many colleagues coming to visit her as well. She worried about me less with you guys watching my back and making sure I was fed. You provided us both with an incredible gift. Thank you Brother. Homemade pasta StephanieF and Jana: I met you both through Mrs. HRNasty, but you treated me as if I worked with you and we have known each other for years. You guys brought food to the hospital for me and kept Mrs. HRNasty company to break up the monotony. Even now, we share great times making pasta and smoking cigars. Your friendship means a ton and I look forward to sharing time together. Dr. MishaH:  You are a professional and a gentleman. I really don’t know how else to put it. This is probably the shortest thank you on the list but for me, professional and gentleman is the top of my food chain. We both had a ton of confidence in your ability and your bedside manner was perfect for us. We really could not have asked for a better fit. You were honest and transparent with me, and you protected Mrs. HRNasty when we needed to. I honestly felt like Ichiro was at the plate. If it could be done, you would do it. This one was out of our control.   You have my utmost respect as a friend and a surgeon. Thank you.   Doctor Wes: You were the one piece of continuity we had with the breast cancer last year and most recently the lung cancer. Mrs. HRNasty absolutely adored you. I respect the hell out of you and I hope that you continue to help others the way you cared for the both of us. Keep the faith. I only do one thing at work and that evaluates people for potential. You are one of the smart ones. Stick with it. I personally had the utmost confidence in what was happening at the hospital because I knew you would do whatever you could for us professionally and personally. I don’t know any doctors/surgeons that offer to help us re-build a deck. Protect your hands Brother! Looking forward to getting on the motorcycles together.   Thank you! Doctor JanieG:  You were more than a doctor or surgeon, you were a friend. You made Jane feel special as a patient and no one would have blamed you if you were not around as her condition this time around wasn’t in your wheelhouse. I was able to provide love, but you made her feel special and important as a person. She really did feel individually special when you came by to visit every day. She admired you for being a surgeon, and a mom with style. When you visited our home with gifts, it was over the top. She (we) REALLY appreciated seeing you towards the end and it meant the world to her. I am glad that you were able to leave her with that feeling of importance. Your counsel to me was invaluable.   Thank you SO much for everything and your continued support.     Bronwyn: Thank you so much for making the trip up to visit during Mrs. HRNasty’s celebration of life. I know your friendship goes back years and years. I just wish I could have spent more time with you. Mrs. HRNasty had a friend who recently passed of cancer and she flew out a number of times to visit her so I know she appreciates your gesture. In these days of email and “we’ll do lunch”, it is a rare gesture to make a trip like this on short notice and it doesn’t go unnoticed. Thank you SO much for flying up to see us. TamiL: Thanks for keeping me company these past few weekends. The opportunity to hang out with you, without any pressure to impress, or have to do anything for that matter really was a luxury. You never asked me about our situation and when I wasn’t very talkative, which was often, you kept the conversation going. You are great company and I really do hope we can continue to explore PNW together. Thank you.     Eric Donnally: Chef, Angler and treasured friend EricD:  Brother, not sure what to say. I am speechless and every time I see you, I end up breaking down. You prepared food for close to 200 people on short notice and when I approached you to settle the bill you said “You picked a bad week to get on crack and heroin brother. You arent paying for anything”. When I tried to settle up  again a few weeks later on the water too, you explained that this is what friends do for each other, it was YOUR honor and that I should just accept it.   That wasn’t Costco finger food. As a James Beard nominee, I don’t even know what that menu would run or what it took to source all those oysters. To find out you were closing on a new home while trying to open your second Seattle  restaurant Flint Creek in the same time frame kills me. You and MattW really honored Mrs. HRNasty and I am at a loss on how to repay you.   You are a stand up dude and I would share a run on a river with you anytime. From the bottom of my heart, thank you so much. Jan e’s celebration would not have been the same without you and your crew. I hope that I can be half as gracious in someone elses time of need.           CSP: Dude, you hung out with me for the first couple of nights so I wouldn’t be alone or do anything stupid. You made sure I was able to get wet and swing a fly shortly after on the Cowlitz River. You guys even thought about me on your trip to Europe and brought back the beautiful scarf. “Thank you” to you and Kat for your friendship. LeslieL aka Asian Barbie: Visiting you at your salon was my first time out of the house after Mrs. HRNasty passed and I am glad it was you taking care of me. It means something that you and Mrs. HRN go back close to 30 plus years and we all have history. Getting my hair cut isn’t just about looking cleaned up, it is about feeling good and gaining a bit of confidence after a setback. You gave me that and I know Mrs. HRNasty loves that you are looking after me moving forward because you both speak your mind and have an opinion.                   Courtney: You and Bryson took care of Adi and let us know it was your pleasure every step of the way. I couldn’t even reimburse you for the cost of Adi’s food. Mrs. HRNasty really enjoyed the pictures you sent of her and I know I have said this, but it really allowed both of us to concentrate on Mrs. HRNasty. If you knew how much your selflessness meant to us, you would know the envelope wasn’t heavy enough. First dozen eggs (pix not doing artwork justice) AmandaB: Your painting of the first dozen eggs that Mrs. HRNasty gave you from our chickens is priceless at so many levels.   She loved the chickens but we rarely eat eggs. I know she loved bringing the eggs into work and giving them to friends because of all the work she put into the chickens when she came home from work. She didnt want money, she just loved giving them away. We would occasionally get baked goods but I know she would absolutely adore and brag about your painting and more specifically the gesture. It is something we will be showing off and talking about for a very long time. Spirit  water, Metolius river rock (pix not doing photo justice) AndrewW:  We haven’t seen or fished with each other in 10 plus years but it felt like old times. You pulled me into the back room and said I would have a lot of days “staring at the wall” and I should have something to stare at. Thank you, Brother. For continuing to reach out and offering a way to blow off steam. For offering to take me to your Spirit water, the Metolious River. I couldn’t make it as I was off to Montana, but you brought me a piece of your home waters to hang on the wall I DO find myself staring at.   All I can say is “thank you”.   Looking forward to sharing some sushi and moving water with you very soon.   I know I am forgetting a lot of people. To all the folks that came out to Mrs. HRNasty’s celebration, thank you. I knew this celebration was as much for me as it was for everyone else. I was able to see how much of an impact Mrs. HRNasty had on so many people and how much support the both of us have. I learned the meaning of what friendship can and should be. I think that is a great gift and legacy to leave.   See you at the after party, HRNasty nasty: an unreal maneuver of incredible technique, something that is ridiculously good, tricky and manipulative but with a result that can’t help but be admired, a phrase used to describe someone who is good at something. “He has a nasty forkball.

The one thing that blinds you to the best in others

The one thing that blinds you to the best in others The one thing that blinds you to the best in others A couple of years back, a pal of mine named Harry was dating another person. Harry was energized in light of the fact that she was pretty and had similar interests. At some point, Harry called his new sweetheart to mastermind another date. She didn't answer her phone, so he left a message. A day or two passed by and no reaction. That is somewhat inconsiderate, Harry thought. I left her a decent message, and she's passing me over. One more day passed and now Harry was, to utilize his words, Completely pissed. He got his mobile phone and left her a furious message. He disclosed to her that she was so discourteous to disregard him. He said that a great many people have the civility to answer. In the event that you would prefer not to see me, at that point fine, I won't call you any longer, he said. It was disillusioning to Harry to be dismissed and disregarded, yet he liked giving her some appropriately harsh criticism. Lamentably, what Harry didn't know was that she hadn't brushed him off. She was in the medical clinic, the survivor of a genuine stroke. - Try not to be a jackass Jackasses are fine creatures. As per one raiser: A jackass is more grounded than a pony of a similar size. Jackasses have a mind blowing memory - they can perceive territories and different jackasses they were with as long as 25 years prior. A jackass won't accomplish something it considers to be hazardous. Lamentably, in spite of these fine qualities, the male jackass is otherwise called an ass. We once in a while utilize the word derogatorily, to depict somebody acting like a jolt. Which happens to be actually how Harry felt, when he found out about his sweetheart's stroke. Have you at any point been an ass? I realize I have. It isn't so much that we wake up and choose, Today I will be a jolt! It's increasingly unpretentious. We permit skepticism and low desires to lead the day. We anticipate the most exceedingly terrible. Cynicism has its employments. Expecting the most exceedingly terrible and seeking after the best protects us a piece from frustration, or being taken for fools. Tragically, cynicism can raise negativism and visually impaired us to the best in others. - Termites accomplish more harm Easily overlooked details develop after some time. We will in general spotlight on the large stuff, neglecting to perceive the aggregate impacts of little things. A genuine model is progressive accrual. Little speculations, after some time, gradually develop into enormous ventures. The equivalent is valid with physical wellness. A great deal of people get motivated, join a rec center, and afterward jump into an enormous exercise schedule. Obviously, it finishes in injury or burnout, and soon they surrender. Had they begun with little, reasonable exercises, they'd see consistent improvement after some time. It's a considerably more fruitful methodology than doing excessively, too early. Creator and inspirational orator Zig Ziglar notes: Keep in mind, tremors and tropical storms get all the exposure, yet termites accomplish more harm than them two joined and the termite takes nibbles so little that you can't see them with the unaided eye. Be that as it may, termites are determined, they take bunches of nibbles, and there are heaps of termites. - An ass out of you and me The urban word reference will disclose to you that expect signifies to make an ass out of u and me. Sadly, there is a great deal of truth to this perception. We experience life making presumptions. Presumptions about the aims of others, what individuals are thinking, what political philosophy they cut to, and the sky is the limit from there. Suppositions can be encouraging in light of the fact that we have a sense of safety when everybody and everything can be put in perfect, little boxes. Notwithstanding, individuals and conditions are normally increasingly mind boggling. My amigo Harry made a presumption that his new sweetheart was being inconsiderate. That she was dismissing him. He accepted the most noticeably terrible, not thinking about the various prospects, similar to ailment, a lost wireless, and so forth. I've accepted the most exceedingly awful in individuals, as well. Especially busy working. As a boss, when a few people phoned in wiped out, I expected it was a reason for a vacation day. Now and then I was correct, however different occasions I wasn't right. For what reason do we do that? For what reason do we every now and again accept the most noticeably awful in others rather than the best? Consider the possibility that we accepted the best in others. Imagine a scenario where we quit bouncing to adverse ends and assumed the best about individuals more. It's an uncommon second when we enjoy a reprieve from the tribulations of the every day futile daily existence to consider suppositions and qualities that we calmly acknowledge as gospel. - Graydon Carter - An increasingly adjusted methodology The awful conduct of certain individuals has given us support to accept the most exceedingly terrible. Nobody needs to be stabbed in the back, or exploited. We secure ourselves by keeping desires low. The test is in the adjustment. Individuals tend to grasp boundaries. On the off chance that somebody wronged you at work, at that point you promptly discount them. On the off chance that your companion neglected to take care of you for cash credited, you expect he'll generally be deceitful. Try to receive an increasingly adjusted methodology. Try not to accept the individual who wronged you at work has it in for you. Have the boldness to converse with her, express your disappointment, and listen to her. Once in a while the issue is a misconception. Rather than tattling and whining to every other person about this one individual, give him/her the kindness to clarify things. Or then again to offer some kind of reparation. Concerning that companion that neglected to take care of you, perhaps there's a reasonable clarification. Maybe there is a hardship you're ignorant of? Rather than making negative presumptions and forming a hasty opinion, discover what occurred. Suspicions are the termites of connections. - Henry Winkler There were times in my profession when I made mistaken suppositions around a couple of collaborators. Nothing is more humiliating than discovering how wrong you were. We're all human and some of the time our inclinations and feelings bamboozle us. We additionally will in general experience the ill effects of affirmation inclination. This implies at whatever point things occur as we accepted they would, we infer that we were correct from the start. However, now and again we're off-base. The purposes behind specific occasions might be incomprehensibly not the same as our presumptions. Suppositions dazzle us to considering individuals to be they truly are. We just observe the negative. This cheats us out of encountering the best in others. Definitely, don't get exploited, however attempt to hold your presumptions under control. You may very well reveal a ton of positive stuff you never took note. - Before you go I'm John Weiss. I draw outdated, carefully assembled kid's shows and expound on life.

Gibson Dunn Lawyers On Choosing Transactional Law Gibson Dunn Lawyers On Choosing Transactional Law Gibson, Dunn Crutcher partner Saee Muzumdar found corporate accomplices Barbara Becker, who heads the company's MA gathering, and Rashida La Lande, NY recruiting accomplice, for a conversation regarding why they decided to be corporate legal counselors and a portion of the advantages of value-based work. From Left, Saee Muzumdar, Barbara Becker, and Rashida La Lande. Saee: Law school is moderately prosecution (or possibly case law) centered what attracted you to value-based work? Barbara: I had attempted suit as a mid year partner I thought I needed to be a first revision litigator! I took a shot at an astonishing prominent case, however despite the fact that the task was intriguing, the nature of the work felt an excessive amount to me like a continuation of school and I was prepared for something other than what's expected. I attempted corporate work and it was a characteristic fit. I particularly appreciate working in groups, and teaming up with partners both at Gibson Dunn and the customer, to accomplish our customer's objectives. Saee: I've discovered that value-based work experience can deliver a wide scope of future work openings outside a law office. Would you be able to talk a tad about a portion of the vocations previous partners of yours have gone on to? What sort of jobs have you had the option to enable corporate partners to get? Barbara: The abilities you learn as a corporate legal counselor, including investigation of complex lawful issues (and relating such issues to specific customers and arrangements), data blend, individuals the board and correspondence to a business crowd, permit legal counselors to move effectively into heaps of employments outside a law office. Throughout the years, partners of our own have landed astonishing positions as in-house legal counselors at organizations and venture banks, and many have changed to the business side of exchanges at PE/multifaceted investments or head of procedure/business improvement at organizations. Rashida: I can't help but concur. Mama specifically offers you the chance to concentrate on and comprehend the legitimate parts of an exchange, yet additionally the budgetary viewpoints. You come to get familiar with the key drivers of development and hazard for your customers and various kinds of organizations, which abilities are important for an expansive extent of non-law office occupations. At Gibson Dunn, in light of the fact that our framework licenses partners to stay unassigned for the initial two years of training, and in light of the fact that from that point we have a free market framework, partners will in general get an expansive viewpoint of value-based work and issues applicable to enterprises, which makes them exceptionally looked for after for in-house corporate positions. Some ongoing models that strike a chord incorporate a senior partner who changed with the company's help to turning into the general insight for a boutique venture bank, a previous partner who has proceeded to turn into the general guidance of a little vitality organization, a mid-level partner who as of late left for a VP work at a speculative stock investments, and another mid-level partner that the firm helped with setting at a senior legitimate situation at a global media combination. Saee: Obviously none of those sorts of outside circumstances engaged you! What are the absolute most intriguing gives you have chipped away at? What variables drove you to remain at Gibson Dunn to make accomplice? Barbara: The scholarly test just as the capacity to work with keen individuals (who I truly like) is the thing that keeps me at the firm. We get the chance to chip away at an organization's generally key and testing exchanges and work together with customers, both the in-house legal advisors and the business groups, to concoct innovative answers for complex issues. I particularly like chipping away at cross-outskirt bargains where various societies and legitimate systems become possibly the most important factor. For instance, Kraft's securing of Cadbury was an especially fascinating exchange both from a business point of view and furthermore in view of the entanglements related with organizing diverse legitimate systems to accomplish our customer's target. Likewise, I appreciate assisting with building a training, which includes customer improvement yet in addition building up a group inside the firm that remembers our most youthful legal advisors just as specialists for various territories over the entirety of our workplaces. At last, I think one viewpoint that law understudies may disregard is that we give our legal advisors the adaptability to deal with their vocations and their own timetables. Despite the fact that we are generally receptive to customers and the necessities of the being an accomplice at a huge law office, I have a gigantic measure of adaptability in making my calendar and overseeing contending requests for my time. Saee: That's an excellent point, I know every one of you has 4 youngsters without sounding excessively buzzword, how are you ready to have everything? Barbara: The firm is a fantastically steady spot, for ladies and moms as well as for the entirety of our legal counselors and staff.

Saee: What sort of individual do you think would appreciate value-based work? You have both been the employing accomplice for GDC's NY office, what attributes make initiates hang out in meet? Rashida: The nature of value-based, and especially MA, work will in general draw individuals who appreciate math more than your cliché attorney since you are so fundamentally engaged with the business/budgetary parts of the arrangement. I would say, the best MA attorneys are the ones who comprehend the master plan and partake in assembling bargains. This requires more extensive reasoning and the capacity to see the woodland through the trees without getting hindered in subtleties. You regularly hear the similarity of the MA legal counselor as the quarterback- the activity expects you to orchestrate data from different specialists around the firm, apply it to the customer's business and the current arrangement, and think of useful (and lawful!) answers for bargain issues. Notwithstanding searching for competitors that are savvy and eager, I search for individuals that have presence of mind and a decent path with customers/individuals. We obviously need individuals who have gotten their work done about the firm and are fantastic communicators. I will in general think law understudies that are proactive, insightful, enterprising, and appreciate critical thinking make effective attorneys at Gibson Dunn.
