Anyone can delegate tasks. Very few leaders will not only develop other leaders, but also go further and actually train leaders who go on to develop others as…See More

I would…"

Group LeaderKent Julian said… Hi Will,
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.
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, it sounds like you are interested in writing. If so, consider joining the Write It Forward. There are some great discussions going on that will likely be very profitable for you.
Plus, you might want to check out Speak It Forward as well. It's another group I'm involved with that has a lot of activity taking place.
Again, enjoy 48Days.Net. It's a great place to be!
Live it forward,
Kent Julian

Joel Boggess said… Hi Will - Welcome to the 48 Days community. We're glad you joined.
This is the idea and social networking site for people that want to create their own opportunity or find the work they love.
I've been a coach under Dan's tutelage for about seven years and have been a member of this community since pretty much day one.
There is a wide selection of discussion groups to get involved with. If you'd like to take a peek at mine, "Raise your Game", here you go.
An easy way to get started is by visiting the handy get started tutorial page. You'll find how-to videos and suggestions.
In gratitude,
-joel
