I am in linked in and facebook but so far all I have been doing is adding names and it seems that I am overrun with requests to join groups that are not at all productive. I have also noticed an increase in spam, particularly since joining facebook. RSS Comments RSS Subscribe in a reader Copyright 2004. Loose Ends.

You love to work in public restaurants. Post the monkey video on your Facebook wall. Check your Facebook page for comments on that monkey video. Check Facebook again. Post a rant on Facebook. Good thing you brought your laptop. You can get some work done. It makes you feel so …. productive. Who are you kidding?

I always enjoyed watching nature and travel shows because the hosts seemed like the luckiest people in the world to me. They could travel all around the world, do fun stuff and get paid for enjoying their lives. . – Proverb Do you have a dream to do what you want to do and get money for that? Now that’s what I call life!

The last time I went to a restaurant, I checked online for a menu before calling to make reservations. They had many different reviews of their restaurant, but the ones that came up first were the negative ones. I’m betting it’s been a long time. The last time I needed a plumber, I looked one up online. What’s that?!).

Reply 7 Farnoosh May 18, 2010 at 6:51 pm A beautiful post, Dragos…reminds me also of restaurants who serve very small servings (less) of delicious delicacies that go a long way (more). But it’s very difficult to meditate when you don’t have a dependable shelter from the elements and from crime. Thank you for the thoughts.

Maybe on social media, like Twitter and Facebook ? Bloggers seek validation from their commenters, restaurants seek validation from customers. Decide On The Validation Process If you do want to validate me (both by empowering and disempowering me) decide how you’re going to do it: are you going to leave a comment? Make your pick.

Many readers have since passed my site on to their friends, family, and through Facebook/Twitter. A few weeks ago when she was at a dinner she met the owners of a major restaurant chain who were looking for somebody to run their social media. Giving so much value away for free has undoubtedly help to drive quick awareness of my work.

Embark on an unexpected travel. Maybe the trip turned out to be a fiasco because the budget exploded and now you have to do the dishes in a restaurant to pay for your plane ticket home (or, most likely, you ignored some very common sense rule and it turned out that rule was for real). You take a risk. Start a business. Fall in love.

Whether this involves setting the time of the event, or getting gas before a long trip, or picking the restaurant to meet at, this is your chance to impress everyone. We always compliment folks who travel more, and who try out new activities, because they are opening their minds up in the process.
