Greetings, a basic level Biznik here with a perspective from Chicago. This is a great community that provides wonderful value. Where I've gotten great value is in the articles. But the weight of the Biznik presence is West coast. That makes joining at the next level a decision (for me) that I've decided not to move forward with as of right now. Things are still unfolding in the reinvention of my business, so I will continue to review when the right time will be to step up.

Elke, Timely advice and well spoken. It feels so good to be back in your circle. I suffer from the "bright shiny object" syndrome, always looking for that one approach that will make ALL THE DIFFERENCE. Yet, it is not the constant learning (that's my particular distraction) that will actually make the difference. Rather it is how I metabolize that information into wisdom and then share it in service to my tribe. Thanks for a chance to refocus on the path. XO Bobbye

So impressed with this article and with this community. Thanks Elke! The article was a potent reminder to me about the importance of taking action.
