Throughout this book it is clear that John and Jim are drawing from vast pools of experience; John from the corporate world of leadership training and Jim from the perspective of one of Amway’s top business leaders and founder of Network TwentyOne.

How do I know all of this? Well let’s just say I’m pretty tight with JM & JD and well… we talk … yeah, I’m kind of a big deal. Anyway, they asked me to take a perusal of their latest collaboration. Cool huh? Long story short, because we talk and because I’m known as a pretty savvy social networker, they asked me how I thought we could get the buzz started around the world on this new book. That got my gears turning and here’s what I came up with.

Come up with your best title for John and Jim’s new book and submit it to me here in the comments section to this post, via Twitter, Facebook or even smoke signals if you like. If your title is selected to be used, I’ll float a pair of tickets to any Network TwentyOne major Seminar anywhere in the world as well as a copy of the new book signed by both John Maxwell and Jim Dornan. We have a few working titles already and our editors are still coming up with new ideas, but I thought who better to help develop the title than the intended audience. You guys know John and Jim and you’ve read their previous books so you already have a head start … and just to make it a little easier for you all, here are the titles of the 10 chapters in their new book:

Chapter 1 – Starting – the First Step Toward Success
Chapter 2 – Discover the Difference Between Ordinary and Extraordinary
Chapter 3 – Intentionally Invest in Yourself and Grow Every Day
Chapter 4 – Face Your Fears and Fix Them
Chapter 5 – Choose Your Friends Wisely
Chapter 6 – Make Your Attitude Your Greatest Asset
Chapter 7 – Embrace Discipline as a Friend
Chapter 8 – Do What You Love and Love What You Do
Chapter 9 – Think Your Way to the Top
Chapter 10 – Establish Values that Will be a Foundation For Your Life

Got it? Good! Now spread the word and get me your submissions right away… I understand the book goes to print in the next month so no time to spare folks!

You guys are the best and always do such a great job of rising to fulfill the needs of others in need … just another reason Network TwentyOne affiliated Amway IBOs/ABOs rock!

While nothing too shocking about what Robert proclaims in his article, many of us will certainly be nodding our heads in agreement as we read it… and it always nice to see some positive press about Network TwentyOne’s founder Jim Dornan from an impartial person with insight and credibility.

Read it and let me know what you think!

2009 was a landmark year if for nothing else … it was the year I was “born”. It has been great and I have loved getting to meet so many of you and also interviewing so many of our global leaders. The Podcasts, Twitter, Facebook, YouTube and this website have all been useful tools for spotlighting the amazing global community that is Network TwentyOne.

.

Amway turns 50 – What a great celebration and a statement about the viability and strength of the Amway business opportunity. I was fortunate enough to be in Ada and Las Vegas for the celebrations and the vision of so many leaders from around the world coming together to celebrate Amway’s success.

.

Network TwentyOne celebrated “20 Years of Excellence” in Las Vegas with hundreds of Diamonds and above from around the world. As John Maxwell pointed out in addressing the Network TwentyOne Diamonds, “the global leadership team of Network TwentyOne is truly unprecedented and to be respected for the achievement it represents.” And it is in just such an environment with so many leaders brought together from over 25 countries that we begin to recognize the strength and power of our “global community”.

.

Jim and Nancy Dornan were recognized for achieving 50 FAA points and spotlighted in Amway’s Achieve magazine (click here to read the article). In addition to this Jim and Nancy were presented with a check from Amway for $2,000,000.00 in Washington DC at our annual Free Enterprise conference… and yes that is their new Hawker 800 jet in the background that they spent their FAA bonus on. Nothing like seeing leaders reinvesting their earnings back into building their business.

.

Network TwentyOne launched it’s 1st iPhone application which while not changing the way anyone is building their business, showed it’s globally affiliated business owners that they are serious about embracing technology in unique and relevant ways. Also look for major changes to Channel-21 this year that will, amoung other things, allow subscribers to view the streaming content from their smart phones.

.

Network TwentyOne North America launched it’s new website (www.n21.com) and with it a new video on it’s homepage entitled “We’re Not Guessing“. Look for a similar look and feel on other Network TwentyOne websites including n21corp.com in 2010 as we continue to invest to support Network TwentyOne affiliated business owners around the world.

.

We added iReport to n21guy.com to allow Network TwentyOne affiliated business owners from around the world to submit photos and short articles from the events they attend.

Have you seen something you want to share with tens of thousands of IBOs/ABOs around the world? Click here to try your hand at being a “Network TwentyOne Cub Reporter” with iReport.

Network Of Caring surges on to the scene in a big way with the addition of it’s new Chief Significance Officer RD Saunders who many of you have already met as he travels around the world sharing the amazing stories of your generosity and kindness for those in need. Click here for more information on this amazing charity founded by Jim & Nancy Dornan and the Network TwentyOne global leadership.

.So that is just some of the “sweet happenings” in the world of Network TwentyOne … but certainly not a complete list by any means… have something to add??? Do so in the comments section below as I’d love to hear from you.

To that end I have set up a new page on n21guy.com called The Dornans Spotlighted. And what better way to kick off a focus on the Dornan’s achievements than to bring you the the latest article written about them in the December 2009 edition of Achieve Magazine.

To check it out, simply click on The Dornans Spotlighted at the top of the page or click here.

Screen shot of the actual application showing all markets contained in the application below:

Also hear that a web based version of this application is in the works for all global markets to be made available to all Channel-21 subscribers. From what the tech guys are telling me, it will allow a C-21 subscriber to show an online marketing plan to anyone (up to 10 viewers at one time) on their own computer(s)… as you click to a new slide in the plan, all of those viewing it online will see the new slide. This app has been available in North America for some time known as “Web Presentation Live”. Questions or comments? Post them here…

From what I hear this will also be incorporated into the North American Network TwentyOne website redesign that is scheduled to go live next month as well.

Appears to be a position piece for Network TwentyOne … I like it! Edgy and upbeat … what do you think?

Some of the key components of this site are:

• Ability to subscribe via email to all posts made here. These email will be limited to 1 per day and only sent on days when a new blog post is added here. To subscribe simply click here or on the “envelope” icon in the upper right of this page.
• Links to the latest N21-Cast weekly podcast – These are free weekly interviews conducted by n21guy and special leadership guests from around the world.
• n21guy’s Twitter Feed… Specifically designed for those who would like to see some of n21guy’s regular Tweets but have no idea what Twitter is or how to use it … ask someone under the age of 20 to explain Twitter to you if you don’t know what it is. I call this “all of the meat, none of the Tweet”.
• Multi-Lingual – Sehr gut! muy bueno! molto buono! … n21guy.com is available in 36 languages! While not perfect, you should get the meaning of n21guy’s virtual sunshine through this translation plug-in. I like to think “most people will get most of the idea most of the time” with this translation … we’ll see.
• Mobile enabled – simply visit m.n21guy.com with your mobile device to view most of the great content available in the standard desktop edition.

Like I said above, there is a lot here but this will continue to be a work in progress … thoughts or ideas on how to make this better? Let me know.

Peace out…
