It's hard work that can be very rewarding. The most important thing is to be a good people person. Nobody wants to fish with an jerk. The hardest thing for me with guiding is remembering everyones names. I forget three minutes after they tell me. I can remember anyones phone number but cannot remember a name to save my butt. Try remembering 600 peoples names and faces. I have one client named Bob that I have been calling him Mike for two years. It finally dawned on me this fall when I looked at the name on this check. I felt like a fool.
