Face-to-Face time

The best people I ever met, have been from personal relationships. Yes, you can become 'friends' thru technology, but you don't develop a relationship where you really develop trust, unless you get face-to-face, unless you have some face-to-face interactions. Personal interactions changes things. If you sit down with someone and break bread, have a cup of coffee, have lunch, whatever! Then all of a sudden, everything changes, there's a bond that gets created. From that relationship, you can establish trust and then transfer belief. I talk to people all day on email, on the phone, utilize all the "social media" tools. Don't get faked out and just stay there. Make sure you get face-to-face time at the same time. Make it a goal to meet with a new person every day. When you get face-to-face, everything changes!

Dreams

If you really want 2011 to be your best year ever, you have to figure out what you need to give up in the short term in order to get what you want to get in the long term: something that takes up your time, something that distracts you. Maybe it's a hobby, maybe it's a sport, maybe it's watching television. Nobody has extra time on their hands. What they have, is a full life but it's filled with things that they made choices around. If you decided that 2011 will be YOUR year, you have to make different choices. You have to make different things your priorities. What are you willing to sacrifice in order to get the gains you want to get, what are you willing to set aside in order to focus entirely on your objective, which is freedom.
