“If I could be a superhero I would be… Awesome Man I’d fly around the world fighting crime According to my awesome plan And if I saw criminals trying to lie Hurting other people and making them cry I’d haul them off to jail in my awesome van ‘Cause I would be Awesome Man” — Stephen Lynch, “Superhero” I read a blog post a few days ago entitled ‘you are your own superhero’. In the post Chris Brogan talks about how you do not have to wait for someone else to save you. You can and should save yourself. I have been thinking about that post since I first read it.

Today I am taking a few days off to celebrate my 14th Anniversary. I still want to leave you inspired. So head on over to Chris Brogan’s Blog and read about untangling you life from those around you.

We all have experts we trust. Whether it is your uncle Joe, a Teacher, a Mentor, or just some person you know through the internet. We all have those people. Hopefully it is a group of people and not just one person. One of my trusted advisors is Chris Brogan. I have been a faithful and dedicated reader of Chris’ Blog for quite some time. I also follow Chris on Twitter.
