Ok folks...I want to get this 2 week cahllenge rolling with something that Dave and I were talking about.
His observation was that he had no clue what he really wanted. I thought that would be a good thing to know. Some poeple know what they want but not how to get there. So have a very general idea of what to look for first.
This is a project. The first step in any project is to get an inventory of the tools you are going to need. You won't have any clue what you need to you know what you already have.
So my suggested first step is to make an inventory of your assets. I have some questions in mind to dig these out but I want to see what you can come up with first.
This project is going to take participation. I know some of you might just want to read alone but I want you to get past that and post to this project.
So here is your first task......What are you assets?

Quick learning, an easy relaxed communication style, a great sense of humor. That's a very short a quick list I probably have more than I realize and I wonder how well these questions will dig others out.

I am really good at researching and finding out the best info on anything that I want.
I can dream really well 
If the communication is formal and I have something at the end of the deal, I can behave very persuasively for a short period of time. Do that allmost always when I shop, and if I need to make deals with people I dont know ..
I am a good person. I wont do anything to hurt anyone in any situation. Especially the few people I connect with. I consider that an asset.
I am eager to try anything.
I dont give up.
I am not attached to anything in the material world. I can go with food shelter for a long time without caring. That is if it takes me to a goal.
I always check things I know with other mindsets, knowledge. I never become a follower of an idea if that doesnt work.
I can give something up if I find something better.
I have discipline. If I promise myself I will do something, I will do it even if there is a war.
I care for other people.
I have a working foundation of the human mind .
I know the place where I will get the most leverage in this world is changing my mind.
I am flexible.

This is a tough one. I feel like I have a lot of great assets. I just can't get to a lot of them unless im in the right mood and then it all comes naturally.
I'm really great at working on the phone when it comes to sales
I enjoy public speaking when i have everything planed out and i know what im doing
I don't like to give up when im committed to something
I'm honest
I can take risks when the odds are in my favor and i understand the situation
I'm open minded
I have free time
I can be a very fun or enjoyable person to be around when im in the right mood
I'm creative
I enjoy learning

Allrighty. I took 45 minutes to start writing this list in my journal. It's not done. I'll be adding more tomorrow morning. I include not only things and abilities I have but also personality traits I value and personal accomplishments. Why go half, assed, after all?
Note: I merely brainstormed. These aren't grouped or listed in any specific way.
*I'm very intelligent and learn quickly
*I'm skilled with most things technological
*I can set up a website and maintain it, learning as I go
*I'm an honest person which makes me trustworthy and honest in many situations
*I have a great work ethic. I can never get permanently comfortable with slacking off when I'm on the clock.
*I enjoy teaching others and I'm good at it
*I'm very educated and I can hold my own in discussions in the hard and social sciences
*I have a driver's license
*I engage customers easily
*I've been in a long-term relationship
*I have immediate family who help to support me
*I have several friends and contacts who are business-minded
*I have good friends all over the world who I can talk with
*I'm decent looking
*I have the ability to connect with people easily
*I'm good at finding out what a customer needs
*I've been philosophical-minded. I don't live an unexamined life.
*I took part in the Grand Excursion
*I've managed people
*I can cook
*I know how to use rope
*I have excelled at every job I have ever had
*I'm funny and can make people laugh
*I can see the absurd in just about anything and laugh about it
*I was once in the top 20 salespeople in a district after only 2 months of experience.
I'll have another go at it tomorrow morning.

OK, I'm in. In fact, it strikes me that anybody that did the 3DMind seminar in Atlanta a few weeks ago ought to be here too. Now the “homework” ...
Hoo-boy – this hurts ! Why ? Because looking at what I *do* have makes me feel bad about the fact that I in spite of all of these “assets”, I am not happy with where I am and that I don't (yet) have what I want. I guess that I am not using the assets very well !
Anyway, this is a bit of a brainstorm, but here goes ...
- I am fairly fit and healthy (one slightly dodgy knee, so no jogging
 but I can dance with it – those that know me know that this is VERY important to me !
- I have a good basic education i.e. I can read, write, calculate and communicate fairly well.
- I am pretty much a “free agent” at the moment. I won't bore everyone with the details but family upheavals over the last couple of years have culminated with me taking something of a sabbatical from my old corporate existence. Because I don't really want to go back to that kind of life, I have been exploring entrepreneurial activities for the future. This ties in with the next item, because in that time I have discovered that ...
- I am good at starting projects ... sometimes not so good at finishing them !
- I am pretty creative in my own way ... for example, I like to write, I have performed in and taught “improv”, I play the piano (badly), I used to draw (badly) and of course, I love to dance
- I have a long-standing interest in bettering myself. This led me to the self-improvement field where (amongst other things) I have studied Silva, NLP and of course, ES
I like and I am going to borrow Dave Foris's line that “I've been philosophical-minded. I don't live an unexamined life.” Though I guess one of the reasons that we're here is because of the dangers that Phill alluded to on the list, namely that it's easy to spend too much time examining it !
- I am good at transferring knowledge and skills e.g. as a trainer. I really enjoy this too.
- Having just turned 50
 I suppose that I have quite a little “life experience”.
- I have a few very good friends – sadly, most of them seem to live a l-o-n-g way away
- In what was my professional field (IT), I have a lot of experience though it doesn't really particularly fit many of the check boxes which that industry wants.
- I'm smart enough to be here !
Interested to see what Tom is going to come up with here.
Whilst I'm here, Happy Thanksgiving to all my American friends.
Roger
