I have never been a fan of Twitter, and I'm not really sure why so many other people are. I do have a Twitter account (far be it from me not to have the latest toys!), but I have hardly ever used it.
The Twitter CONCEPT, however, might be about to turn into something that people can actually put to some good use, and I am working with Gary Evans from Positivity Space on a project that just might turn into something very, very cool.
In essence, we are considering building an interface that would allow people who were on the road to success to be able to stay in touch with each other as a means of keeping each other accountable, reminding each other about critical success processes, and just generally partnering up for success.
The "new" part of this idea comes in when this entire process is accomplished over short messages, rather than emails, telephone calls, message boards, etc. It will be more like quick wake up calls or reminders, and less like philosophical debates about personal growth and development.
Not that there's anything wrong with that! :)
Anyway, I put a write up about what Gary and I are considering over at Personal Development Partners, and we are inviting everyone and anyone who is interested in sharing their thoughts to join in the conversation and let yourself be heard.
If you are a PDP member then you can just click the link to head over there and join the discussion. Non-members can also read the post, and they can either sign up at the site for free in order to participate and share their thoughts, or, just drop your ideas into the comment box below this post.
When Gary first approached me about this, my first thought was I'M SO BUSY!! However, Gary is a great guy with great ideas, and I realized something in that moment of considering how busy I was:
I am ALWAYS busy, and it often causes me to forget to do things that I SHOULD be doing to create the life that I want to be living. The site that Gary and I are proposing would lessen or even eliminate that obstacle.
Definitely worth checking out:
Can you Twitter yourself to Happiness?
Take time off with a clear conscience!
