After having known Tom for years and being personally coached by him, I know he is as authentic as they come. There are many of us who are here to do big things, REALLY BIG things. Sooner or later we do have to go out there on a limb and just not take into ourselves those opinions that don’t uplift. I sure hope that someday Richard will know people like us who talk big and actually mean it and will be able to experience just how ligit we are. I wish for him to feel safe and loved as he is his authentic self. But I agree with whoever said it was kind of like a testing ground. Sooner or later we will run into naysayers out there in the world, and we have to be strong enough inside ourselves to deal with it. I know for my own self many times I wasn’t strong enough. I am working through that now. I have quit doing what I love to do in the past because the voices were just too strong. But each time I went back because the calling was stronger. Now I am strong enough and will follow through to completion what I know that I am here to do. Maybe one step at a time, but nonetheless it will get done. I am grateful that there are those like Tom that inspire us to finish what we started and get our juices flowing. Thanks Tom for just being YOU!

Jackson – Welcome man. Tell me more next time. I always love to hear your points of inspiration.

Jess – Welcome and I appreciate every aspect of your comment. I remember the first time I used the G word in a post and got 15 unsubscribes. Some folks think business and spirituality can’t coexist. I know that it already does. Thanks again for your strong support.

Tom- Great stuff! Your points are so fundamental that they may sound cheesy and fluffy to some people who want to bash it. However, I don't think it is necessary to leave negative comments on your site. You have a right to manage whatever is up there, and I think that this Richard guy's comments are distracting and negative. I wouldn't even entertain criticism unless it was that of the helpful sort and not laced with resentment. Congratulations on your success! You are a great guide, and I look forward to more posts. You are an example of courage and authenticity. Most people don't have the guts to bare their spiritual side to the entire world. But only through courage and authenticity can we really be creators in our own environment. Kudos. .-= Jess Sides´s last blog ..title of stuff =-.

Jannie – Perhaps that’s it. Right now I can’t think smaller and I’m certainly not going to be smaller just to make someone comfortable. I am what I am and I embrace that man. I’m so happy that you are going for it regardless of your young age. It’s all so damn relative anyway. I’m sure you’ll be the loosest performer on that stage. Break a leg!

Walter – From my heart – thank you. Support means so much when we are out on the edge building something totally original. I still can’t believe that some folks think there is nothing new. How sad. Every interaction is new and different and every concept may have been though of before but when you or I consider it – it is new to us and therefore fresh with possibilities.

I think Richard is missing the point that we ALL have so much grandness in us, if only we had the courage to tap into it and go for it – like you do, Tom.

Anyhoo,

I LOVE what you say about it never being too late. I know that to be true, boy howdy do I. You probably don’t see a lot of mid-forties gals (gee, am I really that old now,) thinking they are gonna win Kerrville New Folk next spring!

But blogs like yours keep me realizing I CAN DO IT!!

Karl – Thanks pal. Like I told Richard those who know me understand that I’m the real deal. I’m actually pretty cool with it. Since I have been putting my calling out there he has not been the only one who has challenged me. But a true calling can withstand earthquakes and tsunamis. How’s that for an extreme view?
