Business Gets in the Way of the Book

It looks like February, and part of March, will be a lean month for my split personality, the "author." The book, Achieving Greatness through Mutual Accountability will have to wait.

The old saying goes, "Be careful for what you wish for", and I have been striving for new clients. I find them through such things as referrals, seminars, newsletters, & my PIW Membership. And it all requires time.

Accordingly, the processing of the data gathered and the actual authoring itself have been relegated to the back burner for the month of February.

The PIW Strategic Planning Seminar I am giving is set for February 17th, and requires much preparation. I will present the all-day conference using over 85 Power Point slides, and 30 articles, many of which I have written, over the last 3+ years. Thank God for that, but it is still a sizable job to put it all together.

Following that, I will be processing the Seminar ratings (what can I learn/do better?), and following up issues that arose that day.

Then comes the Book Manufacturers Institute (BMI) IT & Digital Roundtables in Chicago, the second week of March. As BMI Training & Education Committee Chairman, I am responsible, along with BMI's Executive Director, for putting them together. Over 40 people from all over the Country will attend. Great stuff, but again it takes time.

So please don't fret about my lack of Blogs in the next few weeks; know that I am well, and more than occupied. And most importantly; the Book still rules!
