One Year Without a Paycheck

One year ago today, I left Dell for the last time. What a year it has been. Jennifer and I can honestly say it has been the best year of our life.I said at the time, “I’ve been fired and laid off…laid off is better” and “I’ve lost a job before Dave Ramsey and after Dave Ramsey…After Dave Ramsey is better.” I can now add that taking a one-year sabbatical is a very cool thing that everyone should do (I’d recommend once every 7 years. See Leviticus 25:8).Here are a few things that we as a family…See More

I know that a lot of schools are beginning to offer "online" instruction. Has anyone in this group tried to actually "sell" your class online outside of a tradtiional school?See More

Hi Jonathan,

Thanks so much for joining the Speak It Forward group. Looking forward to connecting with you there!

Live It Forward,
Kent Julian

PS Also, in case you're interested, I offer a free e-resource entitled Goal-Setting That Actually Works! to those who join the Make The Move email community (also free). I think you'll get a ton out of both resources.

Hi Jonathan,

I try to take time each week to welcome new members to 48Days.Net. So, let me say "welcome" to you! I know you will find this to be a great site filled with people who are experiencing true success in both life and work.

One thing I noticed on your profile is you are a coach at heart. Not many people have that ability. It's a rare gift.

Also, I'd like to point out that one of the best places to connect with other liked-minded people here is in the GROUPS section. There are groups for just about every interest you can think of, and if you can't find a group that interests you, you can start one. Groups are my favorite part of 48Days.Net!

Finally, if you happen to be a speaker or author (or want to become either), check out these two groups. They are two of the most popular groups on the site because of all the great conversation taking place:

* Speak It Forward -- REAL Success and Profit for Speakers!
* Write It Forward -- REAL Success and Profit for Writers!

Again, enjoy 48Days.Net. It's a great place to be!

Live it forward,
Kent Julian
