Keep Swimming Little Fish!
First I must say I just love your site. Second, your blog made me remember that even though I am a little fish in a big pond that if I just keep doing what I'm doing I will be alright. My story is very similar to that of a little fish, however I left the big pond in December last year. I use to work for Sunlife and now I am an independent advisor, so this analogy made me smile.
