Can I give you some feedback?

When you share your life's work and experience with us through your podcasts, and you do it so freely and graciously, here's what happens:

It makes me feel a tremendous sense of gratitude.

Average people like myself are able to improve their position and standing without it costing a fortune. Expensive training keeps the elite on the upward climb of self-development while the rest of us struggle, trying to find information and willing teachers with practical experience (rare).

It makes me think you are more than just a couple of guys out for a buck. It makes me think you are actually enlightened visitors from another place, disguised as a couple of ordinary guys… here to teach us how to be better people.

It helps non-managers and new managers (like me) to know what to expect as they climb the ladder. It helps us get prepared *before* we encounter difficult situations.

It helps us improve not just our work relationships, but ALL of our relationships.

It helps us be more better communicators. (j/k)

So thank you. Even though I really can’t afford it now, I will be attending your San Francisco Session in 2008. I wish I could do one sooner, but I am certain it will be worth the expense and the wait.

I believe in you, and I follow your guidance without prejudice and without modification. It works. By golly, it works!
