"In the confrontation between the stream and the rock, the stream always wins - not by strength but by perseverance."

- H. Jackson Brown

So who are you? The hard, strong rock? or the flexible water full of perseverance?

What a ride ......

Life’s journey is not to arrive at the grave safely, in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out, shouting “Holy shit, what a ride!”

Who I follow and why ...

Image by via CrunchBaseAs I have been following Twitter for a while, I thought I would share some of my favorite "tweeters" and why as they have given me so much ...

1) Chris Brogan - chrisbrogan
Anything you will ever need to know or understand about Social Media, Chris has written about. He brings to social media what Thomas Leonard brought to Executive Coaching.

2) Kris Rowlands - freshfocus
Kris has tons of great stuff to help keep you focused and organized.

3) Mike Michalowicz - TPEntrepreneur
The Toilet Paper Entrepreneur - With a name like that how could you not want to follow? I also highly recommend his book ... His regular interviews with fellow Entrepreneurs are inspiring.

4) Patti Digh - pattidigh
Author of "Live is a Verb." Patti makes sure that you have your priorities in your life straight.

5) ShoutsHollers
Why? Because I need to be reminded on a regular basis that there is life in West Virginia beyond my computer. The team behind this site are continually updating the "what's happening" in Charleston .. thanks guys!

3) My favorite author is Dean Knootz ... the man has sick mind!

4) My biggest regret (OK .. maybe just one of ...) is that I never learned to play the piano
