What Will I Say for a Whole Year?


If you caught my commentary to Gary's post of August 11, you'll know that I threw down the gauntlet... well, at least I gave MYSELF a fairly decent challenge. The question now is, what will I SAY for a whole year?

Who... ME WORRY?

Not a chance, really. I'm sort of like the quiet guy you meet at the party who, once you get him talking, you can't shut him up. Actually, I'm fairly comfortable in this environment and I'm confident that I'll have some pretty interesting and useful things to share.

But since you ask... what WILL I find to talk about over a period of a year? Gosh, that's 365 DAYS, you know!!! What if I get writer's block or something?

Well, it's hard for me to even conceive that the people posting and reading these logs would ever run out of interesting and useful things to share. Most of us have a book or two, plus a tape program or two going each and every day. We're soaking up information like a sponge and in order to soak up even more, sometimes we just have to wring ourselves out.

"But what if we've already heard it before?" you say. I'll bet you haven't heard Dr. Stephen Covey, Mike Dooley, Tony Robbins, Brian Tracy, etc. as told through the experiences and perceptions of Russ Hamel.

As well, we haven't heard YOUR smorgasbord of influences as only YOU can relate, either. Who knows; MAYBE IT'S YOUR STORY THAT UNLOCKS THE UNIVERSE FOR SOMEONE ELSE.

Was that another challenge?

Sure it was! You don't think I want to do this 'Year Thing' all by myself, do you? :)

So, mark this date down... Wednesday, August 13, 2003. This is day #1 of 365.

All the best from Toronto,
Russ Hamel
