  Gift Idea: Give the gift of knowledge

  Well it’s been a few weeks but I figured there is no time like the present to suggest a few good gift ideas for the holiday season. Personally I’ve run into some road blocks when it comes to gift ideas, so I figured why not find a way to give my talents or business expertise instead of tangible items.

  Since we all share so many talents, why not give the gift of knowledge to one of your friends, family members, or maybe even a stranger. I personally plan to offer internet marketing strategy (as a service) and XHTML/CSS/javaScript classes to one of my friends. Now I’m not sure of how it will work out but I’ll let you know how it goes. In the mean time, what are some of your talents or gifts that you can offer someone? Is giving my talent a “real” gift?

  The top 7 things I'm looking forward to over the next 365 days!

  Happy birthday to me… happy birthday to me… happy birthday to Jdot (that’s me)… happy birthday to me! LOL!! Ok I promise no more singing!

  The real reason I’m writing is to talk about what I would like to see over the next 365 days. I don’t want to keep this post too long so I’ll just hop right in. Here are the top 7 things I’m looking forward to over the next year!

  • Continued business growth for Social Saints (my baby) and my other businesses – Business has been good, but I would like to see the business grow, and even bring on some additional partners within the coming months! Interested?
  • The revitalization of Bizzyness – As some of you may know Akuba and I created a website about 15 months ago called Bizzyness. The site is designed to be an online resource and conversation portal for couples who decide to explore the business world together. Though we still love the concept, the truth is we haven’t had much time lately to update it and keep it going so it is my personal desire to recharge the concept and get Bizzyness back on course!
  • Traveling a little more and living in a different city – I believe this is self explanatory. Any suggestions on where I should live or where I should travel to?
  • Helping my friends, and family establish their businesses – If you’ve known me more than a weeks, you know that I love business. It’s one of the things I’m passionate about and something I love to share with others. It is the desire to share that encourages me to encourage others to start businesses, so it is my wish to help them along the way.
  • Making progress on our family tree – My family tree (particularly on my father’s side) is very incomplete, so I plan to make some additional progress on that so that I can continue to learn more about my family and myself.
  • The arrival of baby Strickland – Two wonderful friends of mine were recently married and decided to start growing their family right away! A few weeks ago we all found out that they’re expecting and I’m so excited for them I can hardly contain myself. That’s one of the reasons Baby Strickland is on my list! Congratulations Ashley and Martavis! BTW… what do you think they’ll have? Boy or girl?
  • Love, Peace, and Healing – There is just so much going on in the World that I pray that there will be more love shared, more peace lived and more broken hearts and lives mended! From friends to family, to colleagues and total strangers the world simply needs more love, peace and healing.

  What do you think? What’s missing? You can be honest. What other milestones or goals should I add to this list?

  Thanks for tuning in and let me know your thoughts!

  -Justin

  I just wanted to take a minute to thank all of my friends and loved ones for celebrating my birthday with me. It was truly incredible to see so many of the people I call family, together in one place. Thank you to; Akuba, LeVar, Chris, Sydney, Ann, Victor, Tiffany, Sean, Dwight, TJ, Carra, Will, Joel, Nikki, Zanelle, Andre, Mike C., and Adonna. I must say that the evening was incredible! I am truly blessed to have such wonderful people in my life. For those of you who couldn’t make it, no worries, I know that you care and thank you for your thoughts and prayers.

  In case anyone is wondering what i got for my birthday; i received an ipod Touch, which I am typing on now, a Sirius Satellite radio, a gift card, some great birthday cards, and some of the best friends in the world. Thanks again and I love you all.

  Love,
  Justin
