I’m not sure which of your wonderful posts to comment on — I’m enjoying your “voice” and content so much that I’ve read waaay past my own alloted 10 minutes-in-every-hour creative surfing time! (I do that too, but in a more loosey-goosey way … like today!)

I found your site via Tiffany Monhollon, who was linked to an astute comment in Modite’s blog, and mostly just wanted to say “brava” on your great marketing advice and writing, which I like to applaud wherever I find it!

I really enjoy reading your articles. As a web designer -I was curious and looked at the gentleman’s website. There are a few fundamental technical programming features that I believe was forgotten by the person that put up the site. The website is our “electronic calling card.” People (sometimes) judge us by it. The depth of the website sometimes is said to equate to the depth of our business.

“I don’t believe it’s optional, personally. The corporate cube isn’t the safe haven it was even a year or two ago.”

That’s sad. I wish I had gotten to experience a thriving corporate America. I hope the system recovers.
Good post.

Hey Sonia,

Thank you so much for this post. I’m working very hard to get out of cubicle life for good, but I keep having all these setbacks (mostly caused by myself). This post was the push I needed to finally realize it’s now or never. I either suck it up, work hard and make it happen or…um, yea, that’s the only option.

@Jean, smiling, yeah I know. He’s new to all of this social media/content stuff. We’ll get him shaped up.

@Karl, that’s awesome, I’m really glad you enjoyed the call! It was huge fun. I’m working on having it transcribed, since the sound quality is so scratchy.

@Niels, I’m really glad to hear that. That realization had the same effect on me. Not sure where it came from, it was just floating around out there and lighted on me one day.

I've been working on my financial mindset as well. I'm just starting to get enough readers on my blog to warrant this thinking. I'm putting business systems in place for when I'm ready to make the big push. I loved your call on SpeakEasy. You had so many great suggestions for improving my copy writing. Thanks!

Great post, and I’ll take your word for it about Gary. But I’m VERY glad his site is being re-designed. Yuk.

As a financial advisor who talks to alot of people about money and their relationship with money, this article resonated with me!
It is so true that the mindset is key to tackling change and getting what you want especially when it comes to making or saving money.
Enjoyed this post very much!
