Hi Richard,

I want to send a quick welcome to the Write it Forward - Real Success and Profit for Writers group. We're glad you're here! Please jump into the conversations and use the discussion forum as a resource. There are a ton of great people in the group who are willing to share the their ideas and offer feedback.

I love what you wrote under core competencies. As a mom of a 16 yo boy I'm always looking for ways to keep him connected to his faith.

 

Wishing you the best,

Hello Richard,

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.

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, it sounds like you are a communicator and interested in speaking. If so, consider joining the Speak It Forward . There are some great discussions going on that will likely be very profitable for you.

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

Live it forward,
Kent Julian

Hi Richard -- Welcome to the 48 Days community. We're glad you joined.

This is the idea and social networking site for people that want to create their own opportunity.

I'm curious, what are some of your ideas for creating the teaching environment where you could do what you are talking about?

Depending on what your interests are, there is a wide selection of discussion groups to get involved with.
