6. MindSpring™ Consulting's Growth in the past 20+ Years of Operation:
MindSpring™ Consulting, Inc. was founded in 1995 by Haydn Hasty, MA, EdS, Ph.D., President and Terry Hasty, MS, Vice-President. Both came from the public education arena. From discoveries made through Suggestive Accelerative Learning and Teaching, an innovative learning methodology developed by Georgi Lozanov of Sophie, Bulgaria, Haydn and Terry began designing curriculum's and developmental processes in the arenas of leadership, teacher development, and personal mastery. MindSpring™ rented an office space at 552 New Haw Creek Road in Asheville, NC, for 10 years.
On the first day of business, the 1200 square foot office complex consisted of 2 chairs, a used desk, and a Mac Classic 2-megabyte computer which was upgraded to 10 megabytes several months later. In the first six months of business, MindSpring grossed a total of $800. In 2006, the new training center at 966 Tunnel Road in Asheville was built just 5 minutes from downtown Asheville, NC.
Haydn and Terry Hasty are the two principals of Monmovmin LLC that owns the MindSpring™ property and WellSpring Wellness Center which is right next door to the MindSpring™ building. MindSpring™ serves a variety of clients: federal, state, health-care, educational, individual, corporate, small business, and Fortune 500 companies.

9. Guidance not Control in MindSpring™ Business Operation
This is not a cookie-cutter or widget-producing idea. It is not our desire to exert control over how you conduct your operation other than software requirements. We believe the more choices a person has, the more likely they are to succeed. Our primary effort will be to help you develop your program delivery skills and abilities to understand and help others grow and increase the quality and satisfaction of their lives. However, our secondary effort will be serving as a guide in helping operate your business through the systems we have developed.
10. Creativity & Integrity are Primary
Your creative input will not only be strongly encouraged but required if you are going to be successful. There is little doubt that many associates will far surpass what we have achieved and created. Based upon a foundation of integrity and absolute clarity of our mission and purpose, there is little we cannot achieve together. Without this foundation of trust and integrity, there is little we can.
