From a macro perspective, it pays to penetrate this level of social networks to get things accomplished. Check out Ramit's scrooge strategy. Monica is approaching it like Keith would: if you need to get to someone, target the gatekeeper and get to know the PERSON. Pay it forward, and try to help that person as much as you can.

Once you are drama free, you could actually focus on accomplishing more goals. Who puts a word like that in a picture caption?

So my new strategy is to focus on one "side project" at a time apart from my full time job as Program Manager at Microsoft. I encourage the spending debate for entrepreneurs (internally and externally) to be about why to spend, what it accomplishes, how it simplifies, what's the return, etc.

Are you reacting to their judgements or is this the exit strategy? Penelope, your true and accomplished voice at this time is writing. The readers want US, not THEM and their brilliant strategies for "monetizing" and "paywalls" and all that other bullshit. You sound panicky rather than fearless.

I just spent all of 2008 and the majority of 2009 miserable and said that my new measure of success was a level of happiness. You could even say we're all studies in the use of various strategies to become happy, some far more successful than others.

In a USDA study “Expenditures on Children by Families” widely reported in the media, the US government estimated that a middle-income, two-parent family that gave birth to a baby in 2009 will spend $11,650-$13,530 annually until the child is 17 years old (it doesn't include sending them to college).

But when watching TV or in a darkened movie theater, intimacy is so much simpler to accomplish. At work, when I have to discuss the strategy for launching a new product with a business partner, we use email accounts securely stored in our corporate servers. The intimacy of reading is overrated.
