Radios, Roundtables & Realizations

August 6, 2010

Opportunity is indeed everywhere. This week, it was undeniable since I did two things I’ve never done before and I didn’t hesitate to do either. It’s not everyday you get to lunch with the mayor of your city. It’s not everyday you would want to lunch with the mayor of your city either. Both statements [...]

Hello…Operator? Can You disConnect Me?

August 1, 2010

I think I’ve had my fill of teleseminars. Having participated in a few, even guest spoke at a couple, my statement is not unfounded.  It seems every day I received notice of (or 20) of an upcoming seminar I can listen in on, participate in, order or download later. Revolutionary: all of them are.  Summits [...]

Mentor or Contributor?

July 2, 2010

It occurred to me today how much I love searching for things.  Not only things, but more importantly, people.  In an ever-seeking-to-connect world, we mask our sleuthing by calling it sales but I really think we’re all just looking to have people’s attention. Sometimes, we have it backwards. In our search of like beings (those [...]

S.ocial O.nline S.trength

May 21, 2010

People don’t talk around the water cooler anymore.  They talk online more than they do in the office. They talk at the coffee counter (or not at all) about their experiences and their lives, in short bursts. What’s so neat about it is they don’t have the drone stigma (it seems to me) of low-satisfying [...]

Preferred People & Pom-Poms

April 6, 2010

I’ve been a bit of a book worm lately.  In the last two kid-free weekends I’ve purchased books and both times, upon the completion of reading them I looked for the authors online. As a matter of fact; I do that with just about everything I have any reaction to.  I go online. After attending [...]

It’s Not Always About The Pizza.

March 28, 2010

I just couldn’t decide which pizza toppings I wanted. Friday was filled with wearing many different hats, a little bit of fun, a few surprise elements and by 9:00 p.m. I was tired. So after doing dishes and providing comedic relief over no-non-sense advice, my pal insisted on putting some ka-ching in my pocket and [...]

Another Lesson in Social Media.

February 23, 2010

Clickety-clack went the keyboard early one morning.  My laptop didn’t want to keep up with my mind and I was frustrated.  Ever feel that way?  Despite all the discussion around how techno we all are and how impatient this technology has made us; I resist the group-think.  Gently nodding to the concept yet not totally [...]

Newness, Greatness, and Awesomeness!

January 7, 2010

It’s a brand new year and with all the “change” energy around the new year I can help but consider what I would like to commit to as well.  So here goes; it may be different than you expect. I will read more. Real paper, sit in a chair, lie on a couch, spend the [...]

Don’t Be Afraid to Change Your World.

November 16, 2009

As you may have guessed from my last post, (here), I’m assessing what is working for me and which is not.  With the suspension of public transit service here in the city today, I wondered how I would react to such a big change in routine.  Turns out, I’ve made quite a few alterations myself. [...]

Feeds & Friends

October 20, 2009

Has anyone else noticed the increase in membership mailouts lately?  People are trying to leverage their lists and I’ve reached my saturation point. So I took a good look at my inbox the other day. Being the one who shared my email address to begin with, I realized I gave these people permission to sent [...]
