Less than a year before I leave corporate life. Time to go into over drive and reach out into the wider Internet community and start really making some solid connections.
After 2+ years I know that I have the smarts and the drive. Like the common spider, I need to strengthen my web with cross-connections so I am catching (and more importantly EATING) every good opportunity that comes my way.
If you are attending the Ed Dale 30DC Coming Home 2 Seminar in Melbourne February 2010, I will be there and looking to talk to you. Come say hello and let’s chat. There is no one that cannot help you, or that you cannot help – all you need is the open mind to see the opportunity.
Until the day I clear my desk I need to produce something of value EVERY DAY.
In my youth I was a long distance runner. One particular race was 35km (22 miles) long and went from a place at sea level and finished at the top of a dam. The hill went on and on and the rhythm of my steps became my focus because I could not see the finish line, it was still above me. Every time I would think “this is the end” I would need to take another step, and another, and another. Each step became the focus, rather than the finish. That is how I will finish this next (less than) 12 months. One step after another, after another.
I feel kind of guilty because while I am doing this, creating things, I am not talking on social networks or blogging. I am focused on getting done what needs to get done. If anyone was to ask what my overwhelming passion is at the moment, I would have to say “laying the stones on the path to my future”. Each step is bringing that finish closer, even if I feel sometimes I am running on the spot.
