KBIS SPECIAL SECTION a simple takeaway you can cut out and tape to your mirror. My hope is that this will trigger a desire to go deeper. To cultivate creativity in your life today: 1 Choose to have a positive mind set. 2 Diversify your surroundings and experiences. 3 Doodle, daydream and play. 4 Embrace an attitude of gratitude. 5 Trust your intuition. 6 Step away when feeling blocked. 7 Be prepared for the 4 a.m. "aha" moment with a notepad on your nightstand. 8 Embrace imperfection. 9 Find meaning and purpose in what you do. 10 Create a list of simple afﬁrmations to rewrite the old tapes in our heads - you ARE good enough! 11 Practice self-care, rest and balance. 12 Create a working environment that supports your most precious commodity. Developing Innovative Marketing through Community Leadership by Bill and Joe Feinberg, Allied Kitchen & Bath Feb. 4 from 12:30 to 1:30 p.m. Sales & Marketing Learning Path, .1 CEU Philanthropy is a core part of our company's philosophy, and being able to give back and "pay it forward" has helped us not only stay in business during the toughest of times in these last few years, but it has also helped us actually grow. Using our showroom, which we rebuilt ﬁve years ago after almost 25 years in the same location at that time, we were able to create a unique opportunity to host fundraising and other events in our space. We are able to bring in many of our community movers and shakers who get the ﬁrst-hand opportunity to see and hear what we do. Over these last 10 yours, along with our dedicated staff who always volunteer for our events, we have raised in excess of hundreds of thousands of dollars for local charities. More than just the money that we raise, the awareness we create for these organizations is priceless, thus helping them maintain the ability to give back to those in need while they are often struggling because of government cutbacks. Another huge factor in hosting these charity events is that it has also allowed the design community - especially those associated with ASID and other Allied professionals - to embrace us and accept our ﬁrm and has allowed us to create partnerships and do business together.
