@bradleytmorris – I finally made time to watch the video this morning and the video is really engaging and fun while delivering an important message.  I love the fun spirit you bring to all of your work.  I think this will go wide and far.  You know I’m a fan of your customer-centered sales philosophy.  This message SHOULD go wide and far, and what a great way to do it!!!

So excited for all your success!  Teachable!!!  John Lee Dumas!!!  I think the article name sums it up and incorporates the fun part.

As a former classroom teacher, I have to tell you how much I enjoyed reading about your process.  So revealing!  At the completion of any project I would ask students to write about their process.  I found that reflecting on the process taught me the most about any project, whether I was the student writing or the teacher reading.  In the quest for long-term success, it’s the process and not the goal that teaches us the most.

I also want to applaud you on joining in on each of these challenges.  That was another thing that I did when I was teaching and it makes such a difference on so many levels.  First, it shows that you are not only leading the course but you are also a student.  There is no final destination and we are always growing.  Second, you are willing to show your own vulnerabilities by jumping into the ring with the rest of us, and that builds trust with your students.  Third, you always jump into these projects with crazy excitement and your best work, and that is so inspiring to all of us.  Thank you.  You’ve delivered such great content on this site already, but participating in the challenges really solidifies your commitment to GEA and the larger eCourse community.

By the way, I really appreciated hearing you talk about your own insecurities during the video editing process.  That all still sounds so complicated to me, but I know that you’ve been at this for MUCH longer than I have – and knowing that you still struggle and challenge yourself to get better gives me the courage to keep plowing ahead because, like you, I will continue to learn and grow with each adventure.
