Re: The Last Person Alive Without an IPhone (The Future of Social & Mobile Marketing)

Hmmm...not sure why I am faceless. Anyway, ok so Big Brother maybe a little too dramatic, yes, but I just wanted to have a literary reference in my comment and I couldn't think of a better one. Sometimes I wonder if we share too much. As much fun as it is to collect badges and tell people we are at the gym, do people really need to know? Do they really need to know where I am all day long? Does updating all of these online apps take our focus away from important things, such as work or IRL relationships?

I have a Blackberry and won't be getting an iPhone unless they start offering it to other service providers as AT&T does not have service in the Metro. I'm pretty happy with my Blackberry. The only reason I would change from my current one is that there is a new one that comes in purple.

I agree about becoming too dependent. I joined 4square, but then deleted my account because it scared me that people would know where I am at all times. It's too 1984, George Orwell, Big brother is watching you-ish for me.

my flight attendant on US Airways to Vegas was like that as well. I have to say, that was the most entertaining flight ever....and I've been on a lot of flights as well.

Great post. as if I would expect anything less from you. I am doing something different very soon and a blog post is coming. Check my site on Nov 5 to read all about it.

Great post, Susan...not that I would expect anything less from you. Kinda funny that this should go up right when Sam's post about happiness is up. My thoughts for both are the same....it is what is right in front of you that matters. We keep looking outside when we should look inside.

Re: Is True Happiness An Unattainable Goal?

This reminds me of a song my childhood. I believe it is from Your A Good Man, Charlie Brown and it is entitled happiness and it is all about simple moments. We get so caught up in trying to survive that we forget to appreciate what is in front of us (or maybe it is just me). It is those simple moments that get us through the bad. The people looking for happiness will continue to search for it until they realize it was always there to begin with...they were just looking the other way.

Re: Women Are Bullying Other Women On the Job

Great Post, Grace!! My thoughts: there is a difference between being bullied and not being able to take criticism. I'm the type who wears her heart on her sleeve, but when I was criticized for a bad job I didn't cry about it (at least not at the office) and took it. especially because it was deserved (ahhh..a story for another time). But when a co-worker laid into me for no apparent reason, i let her have it. I wasn't about to let her treat me in a way that wasn't professional. I agree with Ryan, the attitude starts early and never goes away, unfortunately. However some people do need to learn how to take constructive criticism.

Wow, Matt! As always I can count on you to look at something from a different perspective. I never would have thought to spin an appreciation topic into a post about career and being appreciated in the work place. Awesome job!!

Re: Making the Shift from Resistance to Gratitude {Jenny Blake}

Way to go, Jenny, kicking things off! Your post is awesome. I'm so glad Sam is doing this. As we all work so hard it is easy to forget the good things as we focus on what we are working towards, or what we don't have, or what we have lost, or what went wrong or...you get the picture. This series will make us focus on what we already have right in front of us.
