Cluttered Brain, Productive Brain
My brain hurts…no seriously. Last night, I went to bed with a throbbing forehead like the devil was tap dancing above my hairline. All I could think was WHYYYY!!!! And then it occurred to me, that I have been thinking…a lot, maybe even too much. I have so many projects in the works, I’ve met so many people, and I am so focused that I can literally see any darts being thrown at me 200 miles away. It’s like that. My intuition might just be deadly in 2010.
That being said, I realized that I have a weakness. I’ve been told this before, but I do this thing where I try to do EVERYTHING by myself. I mean who better to trust to get things accomplished than you? But when you are a full time student at NYU, taking 4 regular courses plus three extra part time producing seminars, trying to write a book, and launching your first real business….maybe it might be smart to ask for help.
So this is what I am doing. I’ve posted a request on my company’s site for what I need, if you know anyone who could be of any assistance I’d really appreciate it. Click for more info.
That’s it for now. About to take something for this headache.
Enjoy your week!

Networking vs. Team Building: A Conversation on Loyalty and Friendship
I read an interesting article yesterday on Tiffany Black’s blog “I’m an Actor, They Don’t Get It.” Her post was entitled, “It Takes a Village to Raise a Child” and contrary to what most would expect, she took the “village” philosophy and applied it not to children, but to her career and personal life. What is the difference between networking and team building? She dissected this question with the following:
There is a difference between “networking” and “team-building.” Your team consists of the people who genuinely have your best interest at heart and happen to be doing the type of things you are involved in that could help you both get ahead. What are they doing? Are they progressive? Making things happen? Trustworthy? Credible? Well-informed? Determined? Are they the type of people you work towards becoming? If you’re shaking your head yes, Those are the folks you want in your village. Facebook might be a great networking tool, but chances are.. your team has your phone number.
