There's the Indian lesson "Take what you need and leave the rest." You need to take what you need for you and your family in order to function and be valuable to the rest of the community. It's important to note that it's not about being noble or more enlightened - belonging to community helps you out. Of course it helps others out too and that's why I feel so strong about it. >>daniel: “In fact, i will go as far to say this, I try to run my business in the same way.

Although your post isn't just about blogging it relates a lot to what blogging is about. Here is another thought. When i meet someone that is interesting and we have things to talk about, it gives me a great feeling. In fact, i strive to help people when i enjoy talking to them. Some people are not wired that way, in fact they only look at what they can get from you instead of trying to figure out what they can give. By giving you receive, but be careful of the takers. In fact, i will go as far to say this, I try to run my business in the same way. Giving a lot and only needing a little. Almost like I can operate at 110% efficiency. Giving out more then i am required to run - does that make any sense? I love that idea - it is a feel good way to go about life. I must admit, it has taken a good part of my life (34 now) to realize this. To me, life is about the journey and that journey is only as interesting as the people that are around you. wow, i have been looking for a way to describe my goals for 2008 and this is pretty close.

In a real community it's not about the minority obtaining power and financial freedoms while the masses suffer. It's about eliminating the hierarchy all together so that ALL people are equal. When times are good, they are good for all and when times are rough, they are rough for all. This is in contrast to what we have today. Where when things are rough they are never rough for the people at the top, only for the people at the bottom. But the ability to surround yourself with great people is certainly a recipe for success. @John – well I don’t have a dog, but my daughter does the same thing – the neighbors love her :)

The master mind definition....Coordination of knowledge and effort, in the spirit of harmony, between two or more people, for the attainment of a definite purpose. Heres the kicker------No individual may have great power without availing himself of the master mind! I can NOT do it by myself. I need others. I need you! I have quite a few benefits and advantages I can offer someone in return for their cooperation. I want the big money! To get the big money I need all of you!!!!! I am a php developer and would love to talk with Matt and Sarah. I quote from the greatest book I ever read…..Think and grow rich.

Chances are if you are like most people, you probably don’t even know your neighbors well enough to feel comfortable to ask them for something.
