Who is personal Facebook for?

Business meeting at Publix

Personal Facebook was designed for close friends to stay connected. A brilliant way to maximize the potential of social media.

Unfortunately, humans, generally speaking, are needy people. Few people would turn down the opportunity to be popular and liked by lots of people.

This led to the Friending of more people than we can manage.

Over time, we also realize that no one really cares about our intimate details.

No one that is, except our friends.

We get friends and aquintences and colleagues mixed up, thinking it’s all the same.

If you’ve ever made excuses that have cost you, and have caused you deep regret

Facebook Fan Page under-developed marketing
How do we feel when we are asked to do something and the only reason is because it will benefit someone else?

Would even a small amount of backstory, or description help us understand why we should act?

 

If you’ve ever made excuses that have cost you, and have caused you deep regret, and yet you still hold onto hope that it’s not over yet, and if you have been searching for a long time for the permission to change – to act differently than in your past life…

Toughen Up Children

Are you on Facebook? One of my friends, blessed with a higher education and a serious career, just joined Facebook a few days ago. This morning, she had 8 Friends.

Not everyone is on Facebook. That is, not everyone over 30. Nearly everyone under 30 is.

This update came through last night and and I followed a comment link to 11 rules kids will not learn in school, but should.

We often hear adults complain about the younger generations, and that children need to toughen up.

Well guess who influenced these children?

Maybe we should be saying, “Toughen up adults. Lead the way, don’t get in the way.”

What do you think?

Think about it. I’m heading over to jeffnoel.com

PS. Rule #1 – Life is not fair.

Speakers And Panalists

Do you use social media?

Do you understand Socialnomics?

Someday, these things will be as common as cell phones.

There are a few big ones worth getting into, just to “stay with the pack”:

  1. LinkedIn
  2. Twitter
  3. Facebook
  4. Blogs
  5. You Tube

These are the big five.  There are dozens more. For now, simplicity is the goal.

Do you read or scan through these every single day?  Tomorrow, a quote from a LinkedIn group member – Speakers and Panelists – that is particularly articulate in defining advice for aspiring people.

Meanwhile, “What will you do today that scares you and moves you one step closer to your important goals?”
