2011 A Year Of Possibilities

- Courage is the power to let go of the familiar. ~ Raymond Lindquist
What is it about saying goodbye to the old year and welcoming a new one? It's not as though the time blocks on your calendar are blank waiting to be filled. I'm betting meetings, conference calls, coffee chats, lunches and trips were booked months ago.
Before there was Facebook or Twitter or YouTube videos there was the new years eve "community." On December 31st it seems like the entire world comes together to celebrate. And although we may have our own unique hopes, for a few moments we dream together.
That spirit is what the creators of social networks and online communities strive to achieve. The next social media campaign you create keep in mind that real success is in the magic of people coming together. How you make that happen is never from putting the "messaging first." Sometimes it takes looking through a new lens .. letting go of what you've done before.
On this 1st day of 2011, I'd like to offer a toast to the possibilities of the new year!
