One Positive Change

After reading Liz Strauss's ideas about making positive change that has meaning and sticks, I decided to take one positve step forward and track my progress. Because the art of blogging is not just in sharing wisdom, but building community and listening to others' ideas, I want to make a move forward in that direction. And I've developed an action plan I think will stick.

Back in June, I started Brain Based Biz to learn how to be a blogger as well as to share MITA with others. One never arrives, but keeps learning. And now, to move ahead, I look forward to gathering more wisdom from amazing folks I've discovered through the "meme," Z-list, which has continued to grow.

So, in taking Liz's idea to make a positive change that sticks, I plan to visit these new sites and others to see what I can learn. And, because this is not a New Year's Resolution, but a daily target, in the words of Ellen Weber, I'm adding many of these sites to my Blog Roll and plan to visit a few each morning to see what's up. And at the end of the day, I'll go back to see what responses I find.

To keep track of this and develop a sense of progress, I'll jot down, in a blank plan book, the sites I visit each morning. As end-of-the-day follow-up, I'll write down one or two words to describe results. I anticipate that I'll uncover lots of surprises and wisdom, too.

As Chris Cree said today, he needs to develop good relationships, and so do I. Keeping on target to visit sites, comment and follow-up is my method to launch. And in the do-ing, I sense I'll develop more art as a blogger. Thoughts?
