              Tim Cork has delivered an amazing 2nd book, following the footsteps of this first book. Tapping the Iceberg.

            In G3 his shares numerous articles that are short and impacting on various topics from you, leadership and netgiving. We had the opportunity to implement G3 initiative daily. He shares insights and experience on how you can do that in your life and your network.

          We all need to be reminded that we have expertise and knowledge that we can share. The opportunity is how and why we do it. You have it daily from the conversations we have face to face to the post we read online on LinkedIn, Facebook or business pages you read.

         The gift can be shared by your and others and Tim gives you various way to do it.Below are some powerful portions from the book.

                Power of Keeping Journals " journals allow you to go deeper and understand you and your perception of things better. When you write, you juice some key senses,. When you write, you capture the treasures of your mind and expand them. When you write in your journal, you're having a conversation with yourself. It's an opportunity to reflect and gain clarity. It's an opportunity to share your gift of how you see things and you think. It helps build a better and more open you. It serves as a strong foundation for your growth.

                Your journals can be written or electronic-whatever you feel helps you capture your thoughts, ideas, strategies, experiences, and memories. I like keep written journals. I think better when I write my thoughts down. I have over fifty journals. They are basis of my books"

             
              While reading the book I had great email exchange with Tim Cork and he asked me how the book impacted me. I shared my netgiving stories. He was impressed with my answers!

             1st  Since 2011 I started a spotlight feature where I have  interviewed 50 + professionals and entrepreneurs. I ask them "2 dynamic questions and they supply the answers!" Had three events in 2013 called Power talk and Patio power where I invited them to share their story for 10 minutes. It was a huge success.

            2nd In 2008 I joined Junior Achievement of Ontario. I went to various schools in the GTA Toronto area an shared topics from Economics of staying in School and Dream Big

            3rd Have volunteered for various cause from Heart and Stroke Foundation, WWWF (climbed the CN Tower to promoting the upcoming Pan Am/ Parapan games happening the great city of Toronto in July 2015

Book Review: The 4-Hour Work Week by Tim Ferris



    I finally had a chance to read this #1 Best Seller and International Phenomenon book by Timothy Ferris. I hope you get to read this book review, if you do a Big Thank you!

   I have been blogging since January 2009 and it was been interesting journey for sure. From by first blog post been written and shared on two other website. Created a referral within 48hrs! (I was a memorable experience for sure). Since then I have continued to write article on topics from networking, mentorship and social media.

In mid 2011 I begin to write a Spotlight feature where I interview various connections in my networking and ask they two dynamics questions and they supplied they answers!  50 interview later I put the book online and began to get some great reviews. Took it a step further and began to bring these amazing professionals and entrepreneurs to share at my local events in Toronto,Ont and the feedback was awesome.

 Lastly I have successfully leverage numerous articles into paid speaking opportunities, being hired because of articles and videos I have made on You Tube by a very well known and big social media company based in Boston.(let you figure that out!)

 It bring met to the point how this information ties into the information share in this book. The power of action, leverage and automation is powerful internet commodity to use in what ever expertise you have.

I truly believe the 4-Hour work week strategy works. It's about taking the Learn. Do and Apply attitude to make it happen.

Below are some great insights from the book I wanted to share

 On the power of You:
  " Do not overestimate the competition and underestimate yourself.  You are better than you think."

  Difference between Being Effective vs. Being Efficient

  "Effectiveness is doing the things that get you closer to your goals. Efficiency is performing a given task (whether important or not) in the most economical manner possible. Being efficient without regard to effectiveness is the default mode of the universe."

  How to handle your email and phone calls better

  1. Create systems to limit your availability via email and phone and deflect inappropriate contact.

 Get the auto-response and voice mail script in place now, and master the various methods of evasion. Replace the habit of "How are you?" with "How can I help you?" Get specific and remember-no stories. Focus on immediate actions. Set and practice interruption-killing policies.

 Avoid meetings whenever possible:


- Use e-mail instead of face-to-face meetings to solve problems
- Beg off going (this can be accomplished through the Puppy Dog Close).

If meeting are unavoidable, keep the following in mind:

 -Go with a clear set of objectives.
 -Set an end time or leave early.

 Favourite application Timothy Ferris loves to use: www.evernote.com

 This is perhaps the most impressive tool I've found last year, introduced to me by some of the most productive technologist in the world. Evernote eliminated more than 90% of the paper in my life and eliminated nearly all the multiple tabs I used to leave in my web browsers, both of which distracted me to  end. It can clear out your entire office clutter in one to three hours.

 Evernote allows you to easily capture information from anywhere using whatever device is at hand, and everything is then searchable (read;findable from anywhere.
