Commented Dec 29, 2012 on How to Turn LinkedIn Activity into Blog Posts at Content Mastery Guide

You'll find it interesting that the default category with Wordpress is uncategorized. Wha? I obviously obliterated that one forever ... and replaced it with miscellaneous. Just kidding - wonder what they were thinking?

Thanks Kevin - Keep teaching those kids as they are most receptive to meditation and usually get the most out of it. Jeff

Thanks Hillary - The inspiration was from a business deal that went bad and was aired out on the social networks. The mistake was the firm never should have taken the client in the first place - which happened to be Facebook. Have a great weekend. Jeff

Shannon - Your blog is not about you, but the perspective you have that is valuable to a community. Try this - take a sheet of paper and write down the characteristics of your ideal audience. Then write to that. Help them in whatever ways you can - with solutions to problems, inspiration, etc. Remember that if one person in that audience is helped by your blog, there are probably many more too that you many never even know of because they share similar qualities - needs and aspirations.

I was having similar thoughts as I respond to the many comments I've received this week. How often though do you get no response? I know I do a lot, which is why I try to reach out to as many that have made the effort to say hello. Thanks for doing so! Jeff
