Link Love To All!

Alright, i got kinda hostile on my last post.  I just wanted to tag some great things I’ve read over the last coupla weeks.   I’m enjoying life right now, oozing enthusiasm.  This is the best stuff that I read recently.  Google Reader +  Google notebook.  I still wish Google Notebook would let you [...]

What, Me Reader? ME working through my newly added stuff:

Since I got a ton (15k+ ) hits from when #lifehacker, linked here, I thought I’d go through the process that I’ve been using.

Remember:

A-list: read every word, mostly actionable. Lifehacker, Cicerone, Lenderama, Bloodhoundblog, Blown Mortgage, Weblog Tools, Personal Brainding are some examples, there are 40 in this list…starting today, I will probably [...]

Omnes viae Romam ducunt

One of the things that my Social Media Presence has lacked is some goal.  My goal is to collect both people that want to hear what I have to say, and subscribers.    I’ve spent a lot of time just bantering with failure enablers, without doing something that will grow my brand.  And that [...]

2 epiphanies:

[1] Reader in the morning.  I don’t need to do it anymore.  I am somewhat of a morning guy, not so much of an afternoon guy.   One of my habits was to wake up, do my morning routine, and then go through my 400++ feeds. No more.   Not in the morning, not now, not ever.  [...]

The Journey: Starting a Truly Helpful Membership Site.

I’m not there yet.  I’ve sold several customers, but I’m not where I want and where I need to be yet with http://loanofficersurvivaltraining.com. I’ve been talking to http://timandjulieharris.com (Tim) who runs a successful membership site, along with his wife, teaching Realtors short sales, good mindset, and other nifty things.  I’ve got some intentions and goals–mainly [...]

What He Said.

Tim Harris is finally learning to blog, folks. http://timandjulieharris.com/2008/06/02/top-10-ways-to-make-money-now/ We are all in trouble if he storms the RE.NET. Seriously.  I was in Columbus when he toyed with our market.

Scott Adams, Dilbert Creator, Affirmations, and Me.

I’m in.  With both feet, I’m in.  Scott Adams, Dilbert creator, in his recent book talked about affirmations.   (I’m assuming it was in his recent book because he took the blog posts down, and I had to seriously hunt for them in the cache of Google). For a long time, i’ve plated around [...]

Hiatus.

I’ve gained a lot of great subscriptions to loanofficersurvivaltrinaing.com. I’m very happy about that, but there is a lot of work that I’ve got to do fleshing out my outlines, plans and forms to make sure I honor the commitment that others made to me.  I have to bang on my forms so they are [...]

Social media gets cooercive.

What in the hell people?  No, I’m not going to say yes, despite any relationship I might have with David.  Why? Because I’m not gonna let someone get away with bullying me.  What a crappy concept.

Dan Green, You Cool Dude.

If you have the chance to talk to Dan Green, do it.  Period.   Wherever/whenever he summons you.  I got the call one Monday morning not too long ago.  He happened to be in Westerville not long ago to speak to the Real Living people about being a superstar blogger. Since he gets DEALS out [...]
