So It’s 2010…
First Up,
A huge THANK YOU to everyone who wrote in with Holiday best wishes. It's truly appreciated!
The first day of 2010 is almost over here in San Francisco and in someways there is so much to say about resolutions and what can be achieved in a Decade.
But for now, i'll just say this.
The biggest single thing you can do to achieve whatever it is you want to achieve is this.
Get a kitchen timer, set it for thirty minutes, take everything off the hook, put the iPhone on airplane mode and take action in what ever you do.
Don't Stop.
Don't Think.
And for the love of the DIETY of your choice - DONT EDIT.
Do this for the first working week of 2010 and you will stun yourself with what you can achieve.
Not to mention how you will see yourself improve in whatever it is your doing.
Oh!
Before I forget (and this may seem self defeating coming from me...)
DONT CONFUSE EDUCATION, RESEARCH, SOCIAL NETWORKING, CHATTING, FACEBOOKING OR EVEN THE WORTHY PURSUIT OF MARKET LEADERSHIP AS ACTION.
It's not.

PS Got a very cool video coming for you lot on valuing websites - even if it's not something you're immediately interested in - it's worth watching to see all the crazy stuff that's going on.
PPS MEET-UPS - I'm hoping to have a meet-up in Manhattan late next week and in San Francisco towards the end of the month. Watch the blog for details...
PPPS On January 26th, I'm pretty sure the IT world will see the biggest upheaval in technology since the introduction of the iPhone. For us Marketers, there are two things to watch...
1. Watch the most phenomenal launch of a new product since the iPhone. Seriously, take notes - I will be.
2. a whole new content channel will open up. Very little impact for us in this year - in three years...MASSIVE
I’m totally guilty of confusing (justifying) Education, Research & Social Networking with actual ’stuff that needs doing’.
Great post to start the year with – thanks, Ed!
Thanks for the motivational words Ed. This year it’s about cranking out valuable content without making everything perfect. That includes video, audio, and even blogging. (oops I just edited that!)
Happy New Year Ed and thanks for the Post, just finished my first 30 minute session and my hand is now paralysed, very therapeutic to get that stuff thats been circulating through my head. Deep down I always thought the key was nt only to implement but to be consistent & prolific -establish a modus operandi of conducting your business..
Perhaps the number one burning question i have for you, & I would be forever grateful for a response…Where did you get those white Tim Tams? If you have seen a sudden spike i your Flikr traffic it may be me revisiting that photo..mmm white chocolate-icious
