The White Hot Truth about Being Useful

December 10, 2010 by Farnoosh Brock

Yellow water bridge in Singapore

When a single word brings you to a dead stop in your tracks, when a quote resonates so deeply with your thoughts that time gently slows down around you, when a book speaks to you so strongly you want to devour it in one big bite, take it as a good sign! It means you are really listening to yourself as you take in your life.

Thanks to Danielle LaPorte, that loudly brilliant and awe-inspiring woman over at White Hot Truth, that happened to me yesterday when she said the word: useful. To quote her more accurately:

Bold, underline, italics, capital letter useful. [Read more…] about The White Hot Truth about Being Useful

Listening to my Readers: Launch of Blogworld ebook and the Newsletter

November 15, 2010 by Farnoosh Brock

Blogworld Expo 2010 eBook

In every space, every aspect and every part of our life, it is listening – truly and intently listening — which is our greatest offering to anyone sharing our life or crossing our path. It is only through real listening that true understanding can occur.

Do you think you really know how to listen?

I know — and my family will gladly vouch for it – that I have been a ridiculously poor listener all my life — and have struggled greatly to change my habits and to learn to slow down and really listen.

Listening is the most difficult, yet simplest and most overlooked and most rewarding skill you could develop. Much as we love to hear ourselves talk, and believe me, I do, it is in the listening that we learn our greatest lessons, that we get to know our greatest friends, and that we are exposed to our greatest experience in life and among others.

October 12, 2010 by Farnoosh Brock

I was not going to leave Singapore until I had met my blogger friend and the queen of personal excellence herself, Celestine Chua but between us, I was simply delighted that successful and busy as she is, she generously made time to meet with me – the little blogger from North America! – for lunch!

My Top 10 Pillars of Blogging Excellence: Part 2

June 28, 2010 by Farnoosh Brock

The best part of this blogging mystique is the flow of conversation and thoughts among readers on the blog. The pleasure you afford the writer by sharing your thoughts or spreading the word on a good article is immense. It matters very little if there is complete agreement or a bit of challenge or a few questions in these responses. To me, it matters only that I can make my own website and be able to share something worthwhile and someone has found value in it. In Part 1 of this post, I shared 5 of my top 10 pillars of blogging excellence and you, my dear readers, added dozens of ideas and thoughts to enrich the original 5! A heart-felt thank you!

Now that formalities, however sincere, are out of the way, let’s get on with the next 5. [Read more…] about My Top 10 Pillars of Blogging Excellence: Part 2
