Focus 2010

by Chris Hall on January 4, 2010 · Comments

No resolutions for me this year, because resolutions are for suckers. Instead, I re-explored my mantra on achieving inner-awesomeness and have chosen to focus 2010 on doing things.

I’ve given it a lot of thought and think that doing things is highly underrated on-line. It’s easy to get caught talking about what other people are doing, without putting time in to doing things ourselves. I know I’ve fallen into that trap a bit.

So I’m going to stop the madness on this blog.

After all, talking about other people doing things isn’t nearly as fulfilling as just doing them myself and then talking about what I did, or showing you what I did, or bragging about what I did… Speaking of bragging, I’m really proud of the Five Steps Toward Inner Awesomeness presentation I put together because it wasn’t easy finding sweet shots of action figures portraying the points of my slides, that weren’t copyrighted. In other words, as simple as it is, it took a long time. You can even check out the philosophical back story here on the official inner awesomeness page, if you’re interested.

What’s your focus for 2010.

  • Love this! Doing things seems to be getting more and more lost in the era of social networking, new business ideas and experts on every imaginable subject. I have way too many conversations these days with people who are much more interested in talking about doing something than actually doing it. At some point you have to combine an idea, some faith and a hell of a lot of "do" in order to move out of the "So here's what I'm thinking" discussion and into the "Check out what I did" conversation. Love this!
  • The problem is that it takes more time to research, find resources for, and ultimately do something, then it does to look in a feed reader and "report on" what somebody else just did. #bloggernation

    I'm not mad though, I think that doing things is the new not doing things... :)
