Hi John;
=========================================
I am humbled by what I've seen from you this week, first what you have been doing by campaigning for Bob Needham and now by bringing to our attention Deborah's deeds. I will put Deborah on the next poll, she surely deserves to be on it as you do my friend.
=========================================
Thank you, John, those are kind words.
Do you mind if I tell a short story? As you know, Peter and I were among Bogdan's first members. As Adland grew, I left to pursue my own business growth.
Over the years, my clients appeared on national television and in national magazines. Forbes and People, The New York Times and more. Quietly, I stand in the background each time, watching them enjoy the limelight. I do not seek it for myself. You see, when they succeed, I succeed. That is quite enough for me.
I do not have as much spare time as I would like, so I do not visit many other forums. But - at mine - I strive to teach my forum members how to recognize what works (so they can do more of it) - and how to recognize what does not (so they can do less of it).
When I see people in Bob's forum posting to their list to help him along... and I see people distributing Deb's "Starfish" book for charity... and I read a post (such as Johnny's) saying "It's working, Linda, I'm starting to make profit!" - those are all the reward I need. That is what I am here for.
Those are the people that I believe set a shining example for the other 22,000+ members to see... Ordinary, yet exceptional people that are working to make their goals happen - right here at Adland. If I can help them get there - that's quite enough for me.
: )
Linda
