I used to have a pretty black and white view separating my professional life and my personal life. I put friends in one category and co-workers in another... You have your co-workers and your friends. And the 2 shouldn't mix. But honestly, my feelings on this have completely evolved over the years. Email, text, chat, [...]
I was just reading Michael Hyatt's book Free to Focus this past week. And it's pretty awesome, BTW so I thought I'd share.

When I meet an SB the #1 thing I'm looking for is to see is [...]
