That's the one. I introduced Shana to Dan prior to a chat w/Pulver and he
gave her a copy of Bunko.

Thanks. I think I saw a copy of that book from my friend Shana, when
you were meeting with Pulver in DC?

Very interesting…

Love you for this response, man. I may have to (and probably will) re-blog.

Now that I have a better appreciation for you as a person, I think I will have a different eye towards your blog.

There is a social media lesson here.

Keep up the good work! (which I guess means, keep failing!)

BTW, full disclosure here, my client Dan Pink, has a book called "The Adventures of Johnny Bunko" www.johnnybunko.com He's got the "6 career secrets no one told you" and one of them is "Make Excellent Mistakes."

It's done in manga (Japanese graphic novel format) and you may get a kick out of it.

Blunt honesty about to come your way :-)

I subscribed to your blog back in Dec after seeing you, I think, on some "up and comers" list (Brogan, maybe?)

Anyway, I was about to unsubscribe. Nothing personal, but I felt your style and my needs weren't so aligned, but DUDE, you totally rocked it on this one.

Thoughtful, to the point, and highly relevant. If this is what you are about, bring me more.

Well done.

Glad you found value.

Bluntly and honestly, I could care less if you subscribe or not. I
look at my blog as a way to discuss things I find interesting. I am
not trying to position myself as an expert. The purpose of my blog is
to explore success through failure, which means many of my posts are
failures.

Glad I got one right... :)

adding to envy. if you focus on your competition there is a chance you can end up looking like you competition and lose all uniqueness. good post Micah.
