Today is my birthday, and my blog is one year old!
Momentous occasions like this tend to make one (me) pause and reflect. I have a lot to be grateful for, not the least of which is the vast number of people who have helped me over the last year…
…Friends and family who have encouraged me as I build a business…
…Fabulous people who have given freely of their knowledge…
…People who have solicited my help, which reminds me to believe in myself when I begin to forget to do so…
…Members of my mastermind/accountability groups who have been generous with their support…
…Friends, family and even strangers who have visited my blog and either left comments or sent me emails in response…
…People who have stepped up and participated in the Captains Curious series, helping to expand the conversation around curiosity…
…Strangers who have become acquaintances, and acquaintances who have become friends, many of whom I have never met Live And In Person…
…all of whom have reminded me to not lose sight of what is really important.
I have a lot to be grateful for.
In honor of the day, I have decided to have a Birthday Sale. A 51-Hour Birthday Sale!
For the next 51 hours (or so), or until mid-day Thursday…

Happy Birthday to you and you’re blog.
I’ve been thinking a great deal about your concept of survey as conversation and it’s a refreshing perspective. I think the survey has gotten a bad reputation, because so many of us now associate it with irritating marketing calls or endless customer satisfaction surveys. And those experiences do not in anyway resemble a conversation – there is no back and forth of ideas, no exploration of concepts or evolving thought.
Thanks Nan! I’m glad you find it refreshing – my hope is to help people think about this in new ways! And you’ve given me something to think about; yesterday I introduced myself at a meeting and mentioned your comment that surveys have gotten a bad rep, and everyone nodded.
Here’s to true Conversation!
