“Are you riffing with your right people? Where can you take yourself so that you will be really listened to?”

Aah, the $64 million question! Am still working to find an answer …

Annabel that is so true – it’s like you rehearse different ways of approaching the same problem to see which one is going to “stick” – I believe there is nothing more useful to learning the art of “getting your audience to listen” than having kids!

wow, insightful thoughts! I remember reading in Melvin Helitzer’s comedy writing secrets, the most important things are message, audience and performer.

Every joke has to be written audience in order for it to work properly.

A friend emailed me that story. I love it. Sometimes when you’ve got kids you feel as if you’re talking to a brick wall and writing a blog can be like that too.

You can stand on a box shouting but it’s no good if no one’s around to hear. So you have to think of ways to entice them near you, persuade them to lend an ear and then deliver your speech in a way that makes them come back for more.

Still working on it, but that’s the theory:)

It is something to ponder about. Could it be one of the reasons that why social media doesn’t work for an organization/individual? Talent shows are good in discovering people with massive gifts, but before that they probably just ordinary people who are struggling with self esteems and forced to put away their passion because nobody is appreciating it. Likewise, if I hadn’t think your post strike a chord, I wouldn’t stick around and leave a comment. ^^

Good job on this and it’s a pleasure meeting you on Tweetsgiving. Looking forward to your post.

When you are living savvy and you are pondering about the crowd you are playing to the questions you would be asking are How do I show up? When you think about is the world seeing you how you want to be seen and if not, what do you need to change. The other is who completes me? This question encourages you to look at your friendships. It is important that your “crowd” supports, encourages you to play at your best.
Wonderful take on important things to think about for those of us keen to live a full and filling life.
