Last week I offered to yell at you. You know, to motivate you to do something creative. I got a few takers (looking for more), and I’m going to post the audio of these conversations up as I get them.
Today I yelled at Cshel.com (Carolyn “cshel” Shelby). While I did not drive her to tears, I did get her to promise to start making videos. Will she follow through? I don’t know, she promised… We shall see won’t we?

Business Around A Lifestyle
The world changed on 9/11 in so many different ways. Since that day, there has been a major shift happening in the way people think and live their lives. Sure, many people still chase the dollar as their ultimate goal. However, many more people have begun to realize that the world could, well, end tomorrow.
That's why people are choosing to pursue a business around a lifestyle, instead of a lifestyle controlled by their business. It makes sense, right? If the world was going to end tomorrow, would you still try to live your life in a way you never wanted to?
Take a look around you and you'll see that this shift to becoming a lifestyle entrepreneur is being adopted by more and more people every day. Some of those people are falling into it because they have been laid off from their jobs and are literally forced into it. Some of those people just figure out a way to make it happen because of the "end of the world" thinking mentioned above.
As a reader, I must confess to not being a big video blogger fan. While, it may make sense from an SEO standpoint in the SERPS, it just takes so much longer for me to watch a video, then just read a post. So many video bloggers just ramble and ramble. If I'm reading, I can skim over the stuff I don't want, and just get to the good stuff.
It is true that many people that don't enjoy getting there information through video, some people prefer audio, some text. So the perfect blog or website should really include some of each. And transcribing audio or video into text is always another option.
I feel for Cshel, I was nervous listening.
I wish I was brave enough to offer myself up for a yelling at.
Maybe one day,
So do you think she'll live up to it and do a video? Hmmmm???
promise is promise dude,
she hope for the best from u, means she hav a great confidence with u.
Just do it~
good luck mate
