I have good friend but they are in a similar boat so the counsel feels "stuck" or perhaps i'm just stuck.

I purposely sought out two women who have over 60 years of marriage between them to pour into my life because I am in year two of my marriage (I knew I'd need help). Both of these women love God and have had a long term, very stable relationship with God and with their husbands. I have learned so many wonderful lessons from them and my marriage is stronger because God is using them! Great post about having advisors in other areas of our lives though... Thanks!

It's a great group of other entrepreneurs who create community to share experience and help each other grow their business. It's not a leads group, and soliciting other EO members is prohibited, but it is a great way to talk to others who are walking that road and get some great, candid advice.

Thank you for sharing and leading on this important topic. Some of my greatest "trusted advisors" are authors and speakers who share their specialized knowledge with others. It may be a Chris Brogan talking about social media and communication. It may be a Seth Godin talking about marketing and business development. It may be an Anne Jackson sharing her real life experiences with her readers via blog comments. While I think everyone needs an inner circle of people that they can meet one on one with and that will hold them accountable, it's also a good idea to listen to leaders at the top of their game. I truly consider you as one of my trusted advisors, Michael. The knowledge that you impart here and the collective wisdom of your readers is incredible. Keep up the great work! Awesome post, Mike.

Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ's power may rest on me. That is why, for Christ's sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong." Thank you for using your "weakness" to help your readers become stronger. I strongly believe that each of us has something of value to share with others-- it is our mission to find it and give it away. I benefit each time you share, Melinda Mr. Hyatt,

For the most part it has worked out well and i'm grateful for their knowledge and advice. i think what gets me though is watching some of my artist/author friends work with managers or agents who don't really have their best interest in mind. wow.. this is a great piece of advice. over the years i've tried to surround myself with wise people.
