And not only that he backed it up. He told his publisher no endorsements on the jacket. Well there will be but they will be funny.

Karl: Go man, go! Doesn't have to be epic it just has to be you with passion and belief. At least that's my take. A good friend sat me down last Saturday and said Jim, you've got inside and sometimes I see it on the blog but just let it out all the time.

Russ: I agree with polarizing. And if you go that route pay no attention to the detractors. Take the highroad, acknowledge, and say nothing nasty in return when they go that direction…and some will. In my case, when I have a rough comment I simply ask “what would my Mom do?' – Thanks for stopping by and leaving a comment. You obviously know the best way to become a bloggers friend

Scott is rock solid, and a major truth teller. Cheers to him for telling the truth…and to you for sharing it. Nicely done Jim.

I don't take a stand enough on my blog. I'm working at digging deep and finding out what I truly believe and how it goes against the grain. I needed to see that video to give me that added boost. Time to write something epic. Thanks.

Nice post, Jim. Scott was one of my favorite presenters at this conference for exactly this reason: A lack of fear for saying what needs to be said. As I read your post, there's only one word I would add: polarizing. Put your real self out there and people will either enjoy it or hate it. I'm looking forward to your future posts. ~Russ
