Get Informed, No Bull

It's springtime, finals are happening, and at home, the bulls are getting antsy to strut their stuff. This is the time of year they show off their stuff for the ladies (heifers). It's always a fun thing to watch, as they prance around checkin out the girls. It also reminded me of something that we humans do.

How many times have you completely made something up, and somehow gotten away with it? I can think of quite a few essay questions that included a lot of "bull." I used big words, complicated ideas, and a few broad statements to impress the teacher with my answer. In conversations with friends the best thing is to call someone out on their "bull." It's fun watching their face as you lay down cold hard facts to blow their words out of the water. It happens all the time in everyday life, but it should never happen when talking about your passion.

Sure, consumers might ask a question you can't answer, or one you don't want to, but that's no excuse to begin "bull"-ing them. If your even one answer isn't completely honest or straightforward, you will lose any individual's trust. That is something that can't be earned back easily. Know what you do, why you do it, and if you're embarrassed about something, then maybe it shouldn't be a part of your practice. That my friends is no "Bull"
