I’ve been in a slump the past few days. Nothing really terrible, in fact when I mentioned it to my wife this morning, she said she never even noticed (and she wasn’t being sarcastic – I checked to make sure). However, I have noticed. I had taken about 2 weeks of vacation so I could work on my house, I was making lots of progress on our 10 year plan remodel (I think we are on year 6 ). Not only do we have sheetrock back on the walls in the kitchen, dining room &living room, they are also…See More

Dave Wingert posted a blog postChanging Your Life – Cowards Need Not Apply!
Back in October of 2011, I started reading this book called 48 days to the Job You Love, thinking this would be a simple process. You know, read the book, take out some of the ideas that make sense, try them, get a new job and life goes on. WRONG!!!I learned about this whole passion concept. Passion – isn’t that what I am supposed to have for my wife? I’m supposed to have passion for what I do? Hmmm – I have to think about this a bit.So I figure what do I have to lose? Let me look into…See More

WOW, what a twist. Don't think I have thought about finding my passion in such a way as you have recommended."

What makes you angry or brings tears? (an injustice or problem that irritates you to the point of anger). Maybe it is dirty cars, Starving children, Men who don't know their families, these are just a few examples to give the…"
Susan Scott replied to Dave Wingert's discussion Is it my passion, or just something I am good at?"Dave, your passion can be equated with your purpose, your calling in life. It is who you are, not what you do. It is an integral part of your personality. You can apply your passion to any number of jobs. From what you wrote I can see you have…"

Hi Dave,
Good to hear from you. I would be happy to set up a time to chat with you next week.
Before we zero in on a time and date, why don't you spend a few minutes working through the pre-call questionnaire? That way, I can get a better understanding of where you're coming from, and make best use of our time on the phone.
Is it usually easier for you to chat in the morning, or is afternoon/evening better in your schedule?

Hi Dave,
So good to hear from you and thank you for sharing.
Trapped in a sea of mediocrity... That's tough. Would you like to talk through some of your thoughts? I think it would be a very empowering conversation on my show.
Other people need to hear what you're sharing. It's part of community.

Kent Julian said… - Hi Dave,
I try to take time each week to welcome new members to 48Days.Net. So, let me say "welcome" to you! I know you will find this to be a great site filled with people who are experiencing true success in both life and work.
Also, I'd like to point out that one of the best places to connect with other liked-minded people here is in the GROUPS section. There are groups for just about every interest you can think of, and if you can't find a group that interests you, you can start one. Groups are my favorite part of 48Days.Net!
Finally, if you happen to be a speaker or author (or want to become either), check out these two groups. They are two of the most popular groups on the site because of all the great conversation taking place:
* Speak It Forward -- REAL Success and Profit for Speakers!
* Write It Forward -- REAL Success and Profit for Writers!
Again, enjoy 48Days.Net. It's a great place to be!
Live it forward,
Kent Julian
