New Business is here

May 21st, 2009

Been following Gary Vaynerchuck for awhile now.  I’ve seen a few of his talks on video. I relate to him mainly because of his LOVE for people. He talks about caring enough to answer every email, even when he gets several hundred a day.  To listen to him, he wants us to find our passion and go for it with all our hearts.  Sounds familiar! I have believed that for years.  All the while I have been wondering what my passion is.  I believe I am closer to that answer than I have ever been.  I love helping people. With my computer business, I have been able to help people in a technical way, making their lives easier, simpler. Very gratifying to hear the comments of those people. Funny how when I reread those comments, how it makes me feel about myself.  Then I get involved in health and wellness, again.  21 years ago, I did this with limited success.  I loved what I was doing and felt like I was making a positive difference in the world.  It led me to personal development and personal growth.  I am such a product of that way of thinking, way of life that I now wonder what the "average joe" thinks about people like Tony Robbins.  Loosing touch with my roots has never been easy for me.  I love connecting to Ironworkers. Thats where I started 28 years ago. The friends I made there are real and substantial.  I will value those connections for the rest of my life.  I connect to others with that same passion and intensity, even when to them, its a peripheral, unimportant thing.  I would like to hone my communication skills to the point where people can get the fact that I care about them.  How do I create lasting relationships with people?  I let them know I care.  If I am not being effective communicating that, I fail. 

So the new business is making friends, building those relationships and showing them that my purpose for connecting is to help them, if I can, in some significant way.  Any comments? I welcome them!

Thanks.
