Mueller Mon, 26 Feb 2007 23:12:54 +0000 http://michaelhyatt.com/?p=227#comment-4134 Michael, I found your blog at a time when I was trying to figure out where I wanted my career to go. I was looking for information on setting goals and managing time and I found a post on your other blog about Franklin Covey and GTD. Although the blog is somehow impersonal, I was truly impressed that a President and CEO would take the time to share advice and tips through a blog with someone like me. By all means, please keep it up. It's not always easy, particularly early in a career, to find good mentors and I haven't really found any who can help lead me in the direction that I hope to go. I hope you keep it up. Michael, I found your blog at a time when I was trying to figure out where I wanted my career to go.

I just posted a blog along the same lines, dealing with the question, "Why should I blog?" Questioning the way we spend our time is always a good exercise; it helps us constantly evaluate whether the priorities we SAY we have - God, family, work - line up with the way we live our lives. Great thought provoking post! Keep it up!

You have put many of the ideas into daily situations. I share these with my wife who is in the insurance industry and we have discussed at least half of them. There are times when I believe I do certain things that lead to success but confirming whether it is actually true is another thing. Thanks for the time you take and the leads to further information if we want to take the time. The information you provide even if I have read or heard it in the past is very useful.

I'm your own daughter, and even I like to read it. That says a lot! I think your blog helps people on the outside see that you are a real authentic person instead of the stereotype that people put on a CEO. I think it is a must-read for anyone in any kind of business. Even though I am a real estate agent, and that has nothing to do with publishing, there is still a plethora of information that is useful to me. Keep it up!

Wow. This really helps understand the "ripple effect." I would probably would have kept blogging regardless of the outcome of the vote, but this strengthens my resolve in ways I did not anticipate. Now I have a whole new set of reasons for keeping it up. Thank you for taking time to write! Mike Clay,

I'm not a TN employee, but I write and self-publish as part of a family-run ministry. I read your blog to get some passive mentoring in publishing issues, and in organizational leadership and skills. It's pretty much me and my wife (and some part time help) running our little publishing effort of about 10 titles now, so I seek out any help I can find. There may be others, but I don't know other Christian publishing CEOs who understand the power of a blog like you do. But it's not just good for me. I'm an opinion leader to our mailing list of 20,000+ book buyers. I used to avoid TN books because it was just a big, impersonal book machine. Now TN is personal to me, and I think and communicate about it differently, and it's only because I have this "personal" relationship with the CEO. Your blog is much more than just an employee communication line, or a PR project, or even a personal hobby. You are a digital mentor, and your efforts will have a viral effect you cannot even see through people like me. Keep blogging. Late to this post, but wanted to get my vote in.
