This is EXACTLY why I’m excited to be working with you on http://projectaccountable.com You’ve lit a fire under my ass, my friend. We’ve all be asleep at the wheel too long.

Often feel guity about hiding behind the computer you think you are working but reality you’re wasting time. In my industry the old fashion door knocking out there in the market place walking the walk and talking the talk. Need to talk to at least 10 people before 10 each day. Real estate is a people industry http://coromandelpropertyinsider.com is only part of the formula.

Blogging Facebook etc is very important for the long term appealling to generation Y or the me generation but this activity should be done at night rather than looking busy at work. TV is full of crap you may as well spend the time on the computer!

Great post Chris. I’m guilty of looking busy, marking time and waiting for . . . . something. I’m better about it now that I’m out of the office job and working for myself. But I still fall into the busy but not really trap sometimes. Thanks for the kick in the ass. Much needed!

Guess I’m late finding this, but certainly glad I did. Excellent.

Chris,
You’re getting real deep these days! Working from the intensity of the soul also requires silence I think. That moment of pause where creativity bursts through. An evolutionary impulse demanding attention to be birthed.
Just a stream of consciousness… great post

I worked out w/ my trainer today and totally get that whole it only matters when you’re pushing yourself to the limit thing (when I collapsed today after doing that one last pushup with my legs on the exercise ball).

Do I do that in my business? Do I push my soul to the limit? Yes, I work a lot of hours, yes I’m productive … but am I pushing it? Or coasting along without pushing those boundaries further than I thought was possible?

Great post!

So, the question may be…does one have to have ‘passion’ to be good?

Wow Chris! … just ‘wow’. You know I don’t comment much on your posts (you already know I love you) but this was just one heck of a motivator! Great job on it!

Inspiring message. Just what I needed to read as I reach the end of a difficult day. Thanks so much for sharing.

Was once told that most folks value the avoidance of failure and/or disappointment more than the attainment of success.

Wish I’d written this.
