Some advice he would give to potential clients is to decide what you want, plan how to get there, and execute the plan. Review what you learn as you go and revise your plan accordingly. Don’t wait to finish your plan to start executing it. You will never know everything you need to know for a perfect plan before you start to execute it.The plan is perfected as you learn.
He says if you wait for the perfect time to start, you will never start. There will never be a perfect time, but the best time is NOW. The sooner you start LEARNING, the sooner you start EARNING. Don’t do it alone! Borrow our expertise and experience at UAC as you build your own. That’s what we’re here for. You’re in business FOR yourself, but never BY yourself. USE US!
There are many mottos Clay abides by in his life:
He even has a favorite poem to reflect them:
Wealth is health, a cheerful heart, an ear that hears the Robin’s song,
A mind content, some treasured friends, and fragrant memories lingering long.
For living is an inward art.
All lasting wealth is in the heart.
Clay believes that UAC is the best place to come for Bookkeeping, Accounting, and Tax Preparation for the following reasons:
Clay loves what he does, who he does it with, who he does it for, and what they become. He is grateful that he can use the talent, knowledge, skills and experience God has blessed him with to bless the lives of others.
