About Me — Mike Sansone
A Courageous, Giving, Loving Man
Well, I know one thing…
“Each time I find myself flat on my face, I pick myself up and get back in the race. That’s life.”
Who am I? I describe a bit of what makes me … me in this recipe
In my life, I’ve been in the position of a puppet, a pauper, a pirate, a pauper, a pawn, and a king. Just not all at once.
But who am I today?
I like to always have a three-word description: I am a Courageous, Giving, Loving man. It’s like a contract with myself, and I do my best to live up to its terms.
I’ve swapped some words out over the years. If there were a fourth word, “Patient” would be number four. I used to have “Trusting” in the top three. I think “Trusting” is now number 126 on the list. Giving has always been in the top three. Loving has almost always been in the top tier, too.
While I’ve always enjoyed writing and even made an income now and again, it’s never been my focus until recently. I’ve previously worked as a reporter, ghostwriter, freelancer, and copywriter. I was even a blog coach back in the mid-to-late 2000s
I was in the restaurant business for two decades on both sides of the house. Loved the work. I’ve worked in professional baseball…
