Okay, now I am on Twitter. Let the games begin!

Associations talk about change, innovation, and new models, but no one wants to leave their comfort zone. Move out of your comfortable place or you will become inert. Remember the scientific law: an object at rest remains at rest until acted on by an outside force. Will you choose the impetus that moves you or will it choose you?

A Short Thought on the ASAE Leadership Retreat

I took away alot from the ASAE leadership retreat last week, but the one thing that keeps coming to mind is this:

if you want to innovate, see things in a new way, or try something different, you cannot be afraid to look foolish.
The guy next to you might be thinking the same thing but is too shy to say it out loud.

Take the lead if you want to be a leader.

Twitter Talk

I recently started tweeting for American Independent Writers (AIW) and wanted to share some recent tweets:



Choosing the right word is important. A word conveys a myriad of images and thus creates atmosphere. You create an experience in the mind.



To say something is "semantics" is overlooking the power of words and diminishes ideas. Use no ink before you think.
