Just call me one of those Decidedly seperate #3’s. They will go off to the mountain for a reason, to blaze a proverbial new trail for themselves- evolve. Not wanting to burn bridges or anticipating to return; could it be- that leaving was the best way the crusader could remind us that remain- of an old lesson: we are our brother’s keepers- our actions and or inactions leave some apples bruised. Some apples eaten, while some apples are transplanted. Some apples evolve to become similar but different, like the old Quince fruit the apple of my eye. love it while its in front of you otherwise it just might get worms, or worse: extinct.

Spot on David. Punchy and powerful, with every point resonating. This is the first time I have stumbled across your posts, and I’m loving the electricity bolts I’m feeding off from this! Must away to share your point of view on twitter. High fives – Sam @sammutimer

Well put Rob. It’s less about “doing” social media and more about “being” social media. It’s definitely more of a lifestyle.

Fantastic post! Do you know what I see people have a hard time tackling? They try and figure out if that superhero they are from 9-5 or after hours when in all honesty they need to be that person 24/7/365. That was the fundamental shift for me. Much like Popeye I am who I am.

What many people need to benefit from first is the power of Social Media, thereby enabling their own often hidden talents. You don’t have to be able to save the World but if you can help someone you are making it a better place to live, work and play.

Thanks for the great comment Kat. Yes, you are so right. Being community centric changes how you approach everything and all else falls into place. Hmm, can’t find that typo in #5. Let me know

Great post. If you are doing #3 sincerely, then all the others will stem from it. If you’re focused on understanding and meeting the needs of your community, you will be a better listener, respond bravely to concerns/complaints, reply quickly, galvanize forces, and want to stick around to help things evolve. And from that comes thousands of followers. (Besides, #7 without #3 is narcissism. And we’ve seen enough of that, haven’t we?)

Of course, my fave is #5. But I think you have a typo.
