Share What You Are Working On!

64 Comments / Focus / By

Just last week I finished a 5 part series inspired by Jeff Goins’ Slow Down Challenge and his new book: The In-Between.

What about you? Do you have a blog, podcast, website, book, YouTube channel, new business, or even a story to share about something you are working on?

Tell me about it in the comments below – I’d love to see what you are up to!

    Here’s a few things I’m working on:

    1. Site redesign: The overall look will be changing to a fresher, cleaner look. New colors, features, etc.
    2. New content for the blog: Over at htttp://www.jmlalonde.com , the focus is shifting slightly to my original target audience of young and emerging leaders. The topics soon to be published should be going more in that direction.
    3. I’m ramping up for my eBook release: The book will be Leadership Is Dangerous and free to those who subscribe to my blog.
    4. Working on launching the Get Started Academy: Funny how creating a course for getting started can be so hard to launch. But it’s in process and hopefully launching soon.

    With you asking us the question, how about you? What are you working on Jon?

    2. Jon D Harrison

      Joe – you are a reliable source for quality leadership material. I enjoy your focus on the “emerging” leaders.

      I also cannot wait to see your eBook – I think that is an awesome title.

    3. Jon D Harrison

      I too am working on an Ebook (actually, I have a couple in the works!) and I have a brand new feature I am getting ready to launch titled “Casual Friday” which I will post on……….Friday.

    1. Jon D Harrison

      Mark – you are absolutely living your mission! I see you happening in all sorts of ways! While I am just a casual 24 fan, kudos to you on the podcast!

      Thanks for asking Mark – I have a bunch of top secret things, but you can keep your eyes open for a fun segment on Fridays.

      Oh, and I joined Platform University.

      1. Mark Sieverkropp

        The 24 Podcast has been an absolute blast so far!! I’ve never had more fun!

        And that’s not fair!! You ask what we’re doing and then say “my stuff’s top secret!!” Hahaha

        1. Jon D Harrison

          well, since you put it that way…

          – 2 (maybe 3) ebooks in the next few months
          – A New Feature on Fridays
          – Some fun & big name “Life Changers” on select Mondays
          – My own line of cologne

          (maybe not the last one)

    Jon, thank you for the opportunity and your kind note!

    I’ve got several things in the hopper.
    1: The blog, http://www.empoweringthe80percent.com, is growing and moving in the right direction. As many of you know, I write about leadership, personal development and personal branding. I’d love for everyone to check it out!

    2: Doing my best to sell my Personal Branding Toolkit, which you (Jon) honored me with feedback and a review! Everyone can find that at http://www.empoweringthe80percent.com/personal-branding-toolkit . It’s a great tool for getting that promotion or finding a new career!

    3: I’m co-hosting a webinar tonight (9/11/13) with Alex Barker of the Leadership Dojo. I’ll be speaking about empowering other people. I’ll also be giving away a couple free copies of my Branding Toolkit!

    4: Lastly, and one of my favorite things! I’m starting the Empowered Podcast! Please check out my pre-launch page at http://www.empoweredpodcast.com. I’d love it if you subscribed so I can update you on progress and challenges.

    Connect with me on Twitter guys and gals – @EmpoweredEllory or on Facebook – facebook.com/empoweringthe80percent

  5. Sean Nisil

    Thanks for the invite to share Jon. First–let me say you are doing a great job HERE. Love the blog and the Life Changers stories are inspirational.

    I’ve been working on:

    1. My personal blog, http://www.seannisil.com. My readership is steadily growing as I strive to create valuable content to help people become Intentional Stewards. Currently finalizing my free ebook to give away to new subscribers.

    2. I just came on board with Faith Driven Business as their Stewardship and Giving expert, http://www.faithdrivenbusiness.org. I’m very excited about this! It is a great opportunity to help encourage and equip faith driven business owners to become better stewards and generous givers.

    3. I recently created a LinkedIn group called START Professionals for networking and encouragement for people taking steps to take risks in their vocation and pursue what it means to be AWESOME in the work place. http://www.linkedin.com/groups?gid=5119258&trk=my_groups-b-grp-v This was sparked by Jon Acuff’s Start Experiment. We’re producing monthly webinars and working on a monthly newsletter as well.

    Those are my “in the margin” activities between being a full time financial advisor and a part time youth pastor. Keeping busy and loving the opportunities to live into my passions.

    1. Jon D Harrison

      thank you for you kind words Sean – your mission of helping others become intentional steward is such a worthy cause.

      Thank you also for sharing the LinkedIn group – sounds awesome!

  10. Ann Vertel, Ph.D.

    I may tailor parts of it for Corporate America so they can better understand, embrace, and bring out the best in their employees who have entrepreneurial tendencies.

    Rock your day!

  11. Larry Poole

    Jon, first off, kudos to you for offering up your platform to others to share and collaborate! I’m enjoying checking out everyone’s websites/blogs/podcasts that have commented.

    My platform is my blog: http://www.larrypoolespeaks.com

    I focus on Intentional Generosity. I’m about 7 weeks into my journey and I’m learning a tremendous amount. It’s incredible all the great people I’m meeting.

    Thanks so much for doing this Jon. Great idea!

  12. susan mccann

    Jon, what a great idea, as well as being very generous of you to be interested in helping others. I’m a big fan of Jeff and love the idea of like minded people helping each other whenever they can. Good luck with your 5 part series, I will check it out.
    I’m in the process of getting my husbands book “Change Your Life Start Right Now” ready to self publish, if anyone would like to read a free pre-published e-book copy and give us a review please email me at therealmerrymonk@gmail.com or send me a Tweet @susanjmccann.
    Gerry was a Franciscan priest and monk/friar for 40 years as well as a missionary in Central America. He shares what he learnt during his life experiences to help others to live their own dreams, and change their lives. It’s a self help book with tips and strategies. He has degrees in Psychology, Philosophy, as well as Religious studies and is a qualified NLP master practitioner and Coach.
    This book is not about religion, it is meant to be inclusive for anyone who is interested in dicovering their own dreams and passions. How to take steps to achieve them and make a real difference to their own life and those around them.

      1. susan mccann

        Thanks Jon, I look forward to hearing what you think of it. Well done again for helping us all to share what we are doing. It looks like lots of you are doing and creating projects books and services to help others.

    Thanks for the invite! I am currently working on two e-books … Creating Your Business Vision is already available on my site as a download, but we are currently formatting it for the Kindle marketplace. I am also working on a new ebook – One-on-One Meetings That Work.

    I write on personal growth, leader growth, team growth and organizational growth at http://www.michaelnichols.org/.

  14. Chad Miller

    Hi, Jon. I’ve been on a blogging hiatus for a few months now, but have continued to write (maybe more consistently than when I had a platform to publish on).
    I am currently working on a couple of guest posts for some incredible folks who have encouraged me and invited me to share on their blogs. I’m also currently drafting an ebook on the strength found in addressing wounds and vulnerability head on.
    I hope to relaunch the blog soon with more focus and purpose.

  16. Jon Stolpe

    Hey Jon (like your name),

    I write a blog daily at http://jonstolpe.com. My blog is called Jon Stolpe Stretched, and it’s a place to share thoughts and experiences that are stretching me. Recording life’s stretch marks has become a healthy daily exercise.

    I’m slowly working on a book or eBook about my short-term missions experiences in Guatemala. I hope to have something more concrete by late fall or early winter.

      1. Jon Stolpe

        I’ll confess that I’m consistent with Monday – Friday, and I take a break from blogging on Saturday and Sunday with an occasional exception post on one of these days.
