I like seafood. I really do. But this is not about that. This is about why I do what I do.
It’s Time
Being social has always been a big part of who I am. I like to be around people. Schmoozing, networking, working the room, meeting and greeting and being around people I like and with whom I want to associate.
To me, work and life are a veritable parade of new friends all discovering our hidden, unpolished and unique gifts. As my buddy Cog used to say, “Every day’s a holiday and every meal’s a banquet!” And in the process of celebrating the holiday creating absolute avalanches of abundance for ourselves and others. My life is not just a bowl of cherries it’s also a seafood buffet!
To Be Honest
I could never survive just sitting at my desk. The need for human interaction is just too strong and too important to me.
So I do what I do. Smile at strangers. Hold the door for others. Create and nurture connections. Help when and where I can. Facilitate the ideas and inspirations of myself and others. Get shit done.
And continue to love seafood!

Time for us to get rolling.
But before you go reach out to me and start our conversation with a different question:
“Hey, CK, can you show me that seafood buffet?”
Of course I can.
Let’s take nine minutes and see if I can help you be the best you that you can possibly be.
Here’s an easy first step to get you moving in the right direction. My Twenty Questions for creatives. Go on. Click and get started. Have some fun with it and let’s assess where you are and what steps you should take next.
Like I always say “A positive attitude may not solve all your problems but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort.”
