Synopsis

Dan Picini, former CEO of the Duratest Corporation of New Jersey writes: "Who is Morris E Nicholson? He is my friend Nick. Nick and I became neighbors by location and friends by choice. A wise man once wrote 'life is like a sieve which our acquaintances pass through; those who are too big to pass through become our friends'" Nick's business was built with the help of 'friends' much like Dan. He tried to employ those who had primarily a good work ethic and were smarter than he was. The same idea extended to customers. "Don't have just a bunch of customers-have (make) friends that buy from you" This book bears testimony to the fact that in America you can still rise from extreme poverty and a lack of formal education to achieve success and recognition in your chosen field. The entertainment business and those on Wallstreet would lead us to believe capitalism is evil and success comes only on the unwilling backs of those you trample as you rise to the top. Nick's story was written in part to refute this idea. You can play by the rules and help those working with you to succeed and prosper as well. Best of all "It can be fun" along the way. Over the years many employees made higher salaries than we were taking. Nick loved and encouraged it. This book is a tribute to those (as well as our children) who made Apollo Paper the success it became. Nick would be the first to say FAITH played a huge part in guiding him to do the right thing. "For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world and losses his own soul" Mark 8:36

Biographie de l'auteur

Nick and Beverly decided in their marriage that she would be a stay-at-home Mom. Having moved and redecorated several times, Beverly finally became skilled enough at interior design that a well-established firm offered her a job. Bev also was interested in portrait sketching and made drawings of friends and relatives. (The sketch of Nick's Mom is featured in Chapter 2.) she also painted two oil portraits. She and Nick discovered an all-consuming hobby in stained glass. A large number of their projects decorated one home and in addition, several other pieces were sold. An original design is pictured in Chapter 6. Beverly learned to knit in sixth grade and it became a continuing interest. She admits that one of her first sweaters for skinny Nick ended up fitting a very portly older man. She learned early: gage is important. Several years ago she started a small jewelry business and sold jewelry she had designed to a local department store for over a year. From there she began importing damaged jewelry items from all over the US. She would repair and sell these to local businesses; the most prominent one was CONTINENTAL Airlines. For twelve years she taught a children's weekly Bible class and at one point wrote a ch9ldren's curriculum Biblically based, aimed at instilling "worth belonging and competence" in 4-5 year olds. In the past several years her interest have turned toward spiritual pursuits and banding together with others to pray for the future of our nation.
