Before we get to that, let's see what I did the past couple of weeks.
Week 37:
It was massive networking week. I realized that I am the worst networker ever. The book that I used as reference was a book by Joe Sweeney called "Networking is a Contact Sport". First off, this is an awesome book. I recommend it pretty much to anyone. It makes you realize that networking is such an important thing in this day and age. If you take away everything you have, what you have left is your network of friends, family and colleagues. His plan for networking is kind of interesting. He proposes a 5/10/15 action plan. In other words, everyday you have "5" interactions, you contact via mail or e-mail "10" people and you call "15" people. Yeah, I know, it's kind of tough. But I did learn some valuable skills and it is definitely something I should devote more time to.
Week 38:
A couple of weeks ago I was looking into creating a passive income sort of internet business. Well last week I started work on a brand new project. Actually a couple of projects. I am working on my first draft of an e-book and I should have the final in a month or so. I have to work on some of the photographs for it and have a few people test it out. It also means I've been working on getting up to speed on this type of business and that means reading... a lot. Oh well gotta love it.
Lights, Camera...Action!
I am typing this blog on one of my old computers. My charger for my macbook pro is now sadly passed over to the other side. I am not upset about this. I actually get to listen to some old music I have on this computer and it is bringing back some pretty cool memories. I've found some old journals on this computer and it has been like a trip down memory lane. Anyhow, I've been really intrigued by a couple of things lately. First off, I have been watching this show called "Restaurant Impossible" with Robert Irvin. Now don't get me wrong, I am far from being a cook, but the premise of the show is interesting. He goes into the restaurant and finds out why it is failing. He then goes about changing the restaurant in the span of 48 hours. Makes you want take action on your own life, even if you don't have a restaurant.
The other thing I have been into is this group of guys pushing the limit of what is possible. I guess I first started watching Rob Dyrdek, namely a documentary on his life and it kind of led to me thinking bigger and in walks Dude, Perfect. It's better that I show you.
They have an awesome book on going big. Basically, whatever you are thinking of doing, times it by 10 and go further than that. I love their attitude.
