I've been pondering what it means to read things, online - or books, really. When you consistantly give yourself over to an experience of learning, of listening and contemplating what somebody else has to say...that voice is *inside* your head. Is that good? Or bad?

Well, it depends on the voice. I can't imagine that my posts, here, life to date are the stuff that you'd WANT to have inside your head :) Too much frustration, angst and well, it's not what I'd read, either.

So I got to thinking, if my voice came from somebody else...what would I want it to say, inside my head? How can I sell myself?

Well...I realized, emotional connection is what propels me. If somebody can make me feel something...that propels sharing, that propels relay, that propels all sorts of amazing things. Stories that create emotional attachment do that.

Is there a business lesson in there? Of course. All else being equal, we work together becuase we care about each other...as people, as shared humanity or simply as two people who want to get the best out of each experience and understand that while sarcasm can be fun, it seldom wins hearts.
