Magic and a Positive Mindset
Throughout the past two months, I know that I've talked a lot about mindset and the importance of staying positive. That gets more and more difficult the longer we stay cooped up inside doing the same thing day in and day out. To the extent that you can, change up your routine. I hosted a virtual magic show on Wednesday for exactly that purpose we needed something new, exciting, and different, and that's exactly what we got!

For some, it may not be a magic show. It may be Family Olympics , redecorating the house , or heading to a drive-in movie theater , but any way you look at it, there are endless chances to try something new. I encourage you to view this time as an opportunity to try new things, to plan for your future, and to innovate so you can turn your lemons into lemonade.

As always, you can reach our office at (770) 425-5573 or by visiting our website at gentrylawfirmgeorgia.com . Head to our Facebook , YouTube , Twitter , Instagram , and LinkedIn accounts to stay on top of how we're serving you and our community during this time, and above all, stay healthy.

Magical Times with the Family!
On Wednesday, I hosted a Zoom magic show starring magician  Kostya Kimlat , who has performed for – and stumped – Penn and Teller on their television show,  Fool Us , and regularly speaks to executives at companies like Sysco, AT&T, Siemens, and more.

We were awed and in spired – by both his magic and his story. Kostya was truly an inspiration of how all of us can turn the negatives in our life into positives !
