3 People You Should Stalk This Week – # 1

Happy Monday folks. I have a confession. I don’t really do Follow Friday. Sorry. I am grateful for all the kinds stuff you say about me and all the tweets I’m included in. You always seem to put me in good company. But I don’t do many #FF tweets these days. Time is precious and scarce and between you and I, there’s lots of noise on Fridays. On Monday’s however, it’s still pretty quite online. People like us social nerds are just waking up for the week. Why not then have the chance to wake up with three new folks that you can spend the week stalking and hopefully getting to know by Friday? If you trust my judgement on who the cool and interesting and nice-to-be-around kids are, then keep reading on Mondays. I’ll make the introductions… 3 People You Should Stalk This Week Keith Spears Twitter: @keithspeers Blog: Caffeinated Streams Other: Keith on Cbusr About: I met Keith a few months back in Columbus. The truth is, Keith has taken Columbus by storm in 2011.  I think most of the other cool kids in the city will agree with me that he is actively bringing some new ideas to the Internet scene with a fire lit behind them. Keith’s background working with state organizations, in education, communications and organizational culture helps to shape his unique perspective on how Internet tools can be applied outside of usual applications we’ve all come to know in the social boom. Make sure to ask him about his 8 LBS pit-bull when you follow him. Christian G.

Go Forth and Be Average

Congratulations to you, all you graduates who have struggled through the last few years to earn the sheepskin that will help carry you forward into life. Go forth, and remember to be average. Trust me. It’s worth it. Watch this commence speech given at The Binghamton University Events Center by undergraduate Anthony Corvino and you’ll understand.

Trust is a Choice

We all find ourselves in a situation where we are faced with a choice to trust someone. The kicker is that most of us have been burnt, once, twice, perhaps many times in the past. And with each time that happens, mustering up the courage to trust becomes just a little more work. “Do I really know this person well enough to bet on them?” “What if I get hurt again?” “Will they take my ideas and then drop me like a bad habit?” It’s only human that our fears, uncertainties and doubts are governed by the experiences we’ve had in the past. So even with those we believe we trust, those scars still have a voice in our head. They always will. What then? Our ability to trust is rooted in choice – a conscious decision to let down our guard in good faith to another human being. We do this in hope that our choice will reciprocate rather than disappoint, break our hearts or even our bank accounts. Trust is a choice. What choices have you made lately? nateriggsLike what you just read and want to get my posts delivered to your inbox? SUBSCRIBE HEREMore Posts Follow Me:
