Good morning!
I’m a believer that 2011 holds a LOT of promise for being a great year for all of us . . .
There’s a caveat, though . . . It ain’t going to be easy.
There is NO more important time than NOW for all of us to communicate and share and take advantage of EVERY opportunity we see to LEARN and network with others in our industry.
Seth Godin offers some fantastic ideas in his book “Unleashing the IdeaVirus” . . . I summarized my favorite golden nuggets in this blog post Monday Morning Coffee – “Unleashing The Ideavirus”
