Leap Year Bonus Day

Feb 29, 2012 A leap year day.  A bonus day!  I have decided to pretend that this is a day to do something that I have procrastinated on - at least to make a decent dent in it.  I have attended networking meetings for about 4 years now.  You know, the kind of events where you meet people and exchange business cards?  I have made some wonderful connections and have kept in touch with many of the people I have met this way.   Some have become friends, some I have done business with.

Unfortunately, a lot of those business cards have been accumulating in the proverbial "shoe box" for me to get to "some day" and do something with..... Well, I took the plunge a couple of months ago and created a data base so I could keep in touch with people I meet.  It is a way I can send out an uplifting idea or information I think would be useful.  . 

The discovery that I have made already, with the people I am connecting with, is that many of them enjoy having something positive coming into their inbox once in a while.  I need to connect with all of the people I have met and let them decide if they also want my weekly communications too.  Today is the day to work on that project!

I encourage you to find something that you have been putting off and consider doing something about it on this "bonus day" that we only get once in 4 years!
