I was pointed to Change This by Seth Godin some months ago.  They have a neat concept and approach that I’ve decided to through my hat into.  You can view my Manifesto Proposal and vote accordingly.

If you want more detail on how their system/process works you can click here to learn more.  And I thank you for your vote:)

Barnes and Noble now has Waking Up In Corporate America on their site and ready for ordering.  Some folks were wondering about B&N.com…I confess that I was too.  But after some emails and communications of the obvious, you now have another outlet for purchase.

Thanks again for your support of the book.

As many of you know I have been working on a book.  Waking Up In Corporate America: The Seven Secrets That Opened My Eyes is the title and it will be live on January 15.  You can order from my new site here or from Amazon (see the link in the right-hand column of this post).  Barnes and Noble should be live on the fifteenth.  I can’t tell you how happy I am…another dream fulfilled…something from my heart now out. 

Since I believe in viral marketing, I would ask that you buy the book and help me spread the word by telling your sphere/network about the ideas contained in the work.  I’d also love to hear your feedback.

Stay tuned…

This is my last post for 2007, so thank you for making the year memorable and inspiring.  I want to give you my top finds (books, sites, blogs, commentary, etc.) for 2007.  Here we go:

• Marshall Goldsmith’s book What Got You Here Won’t Get You There.
• Truveo for all things video related.
• Mission Minded Management blog.
• Seth Godin’s year-end post on Only Two Years Left.
• Pat Metheny’s fantastic artistry (see below):

• I started running this past September (one of the best decisions of my life) and my wife bought me the Nike + product.
• American Express showed me (once again) why they are the best credit card company in the world.  When things went south (as is normal in life) with my card experience, they took care of me in extraordinary ways.
• Guy Kawasaki’s Dear Santa post.  He also gives us some cool sites/service providers to look at.
• Google Books is a product near and dear to my heart, because of my new book’s (Waking Up In Corporate America) release in January.
• John Eldredge’s The Way of the Wild Heart.  It’s a book that helped me make peace with my dad…I learned and I changed.

We’ve made some changes to the Epic Living website.  You can view the main homepage here.  Your thoughts are welcomed.

Asher Adelman brings us a new feature on eBossWatch.com.  It’s a contest based on stories around your boss-past or present.  I love it!

The stories are sometimes funny and sometimes sad.  Either way, I think you will relate.

Check out this story (Fired from a thankless job on Thanksgiving).

To all of the Epic Living subscribers and regular visitors thank you for your loyalty and interest.  You’ve made a conscious choice of allowing my thoughts to come into your day.  This means much to me and I hope your growth has increased because of it.

Just added some new books and blogs to the site.  They can be found to your right under Epic Books and Epic Blogs.

Enjoy!

I have a new column coming out in BizJournals (November 16th Columbus Business First if you desire a hard copy).  I’ll post a link on Friday.

The subject matter is around power and the problem it can create inside all levels of an organization.  I also supply needed remedies to help.

Hope you enjoy it.
