Ryan what a beautiful story of triumph! Your friend Brian chose how he would handle the situation instead of letting life happen to him. Instead of being a victim, he rose above his circumstances. Life is all about how we choose to handle it – and now he has a wonderful victorious story to share with others. Thank you for sharing this.

Comment on The Secret is the Relationship Not Social Media by Ryan Estis

Thanks for the feedback. Keith, you raise a great point about how the needs and preferences of our inner circle and coveted relationships may evolve.

And Victorio, time is a big issue. I think finding that balance and determining the right numbers of tools in the toolbox will prove to be an ongoing challenge. What is the right number of networks and/or solutions suite for a business will continue to be a very relevant and important discussion.

Great post!

Success (financial or otherwise) does depend on the relationships you have with others. for me, having a presence online has been a great benefit to me. I’ve established connections with smart, creative, and generous professionals from around the world. As a result I’ve increased my knowledge in different subject areas and my passion for my profession has grown.

The main drawback for me regarding social media is one of time. I find that I’ve reached the limit in terms of how many communities I can be a part of and still remain engaged. I now have to make some tough choices as to which ones I’ll remain committed to and which ones I’ll have to let go of.

Great point, one word of caution to your example, if people start moving to other channels for building relationships, your example might have to move also. If the people he has built with want to connect in the social space online in between the face to face and email, the example will evaluate connection paths also.

I agree though it is all about the relationship and jumping into social media with a relationship strategy helps tremendously to define the end in mind for you personally or for a business.

Being from Wisconsin…ahem…we tend to think of the Green Bay Packers as America’s Team! All kidding aside, though, the idea of creating an experience is a powerful one – and one that the Dallas Cowboys has done superbly well (and growing up, they were a favorite of mine). Creating a winning vision has so much backing to winning (in football and in life). And…that bus IS pretty sweet!
