hile snow blowing my driveway the other morning, I had a thought. I remembered that I made a commitment to write an editor’s note for every single issue in 2022, something I hadn’t consistently done since we acquired back in 2017. I asked you to hold me to it, keep me accountable and call me out if I didn’t get this accomplished, and guess what? I didn’t want to disappoint you, so I did it! Unknowingly, I had created a verbal contract (or written agreement) with you, in which I had clearly stated my intention and that alone helped motivate me each month to get an editor’s note written.
