@Ray Nice to see you here: good of you to leave a comment, thanks. I like your views, perhaps because we share them!

@Kevin I appreciate old school comments a lot: thanks .. and thanks for the compliment!

@Kim I like your “how” idea. Sometimes we forget why we started something — or even that we started something. Thanks for liking the description, by the way.

@Todd Agreed!

Right on! There is so much information that one needs to consume that is relevant that one needs to quit devoting time to irrelevant stuff.

Ruud, as I was reading this I was thinking about how discouraged I had recently become due to some of the things that I have observed in the blogosphere. (to be continued)
I had lost some motivation and even thought “hmm..maybe this is not for me”. This feeling did not last long because I began to see things in the light that you speak of. I have gotten a better visual on my goals and intentions. This has increased my awareness in ways that are allowing me to apply some cognitive restructuring. I am seeing things from a “HOW” standpoint now as opposed to a “What or Why” standpoint. This being imperative to progress.

What is it that I hope to attain? In business. In friendships. and so on.

Thanks for a great post. (PS: I love your “the person” description.)

Ruud - I wanted to post an “old school” comment because this is really original thinking. I love the “intention deficit” concept. Keep up the great work.

Ruud,

Yes I believe you are on to something here.

I’m thinking along similar lines and I’ll share two thought fragments from a presentation I was working on this morning…when I decided to reward myself for completing one section by giving myself some Twitter-time, which led me to your post…

1) ‘info glut’ (a threat) or ‘information abundance’ (a blessing)? I try to live in the latter.
2) ‘multi-tasking required’ or ‘discipline and focus required’? Again, I try to live in the latter.

Perspective and the choices that we do have, and make, are everything, as you so nicely highlight in this post.

Cheers,
Ray
