Michael and I were discussing the need to include copy writing skills in Gateway Blogging. I saw an opportunity to help entrepreneurs to uncover their unknown skill sets.
Michael was concerned that people might “balk at the idea of having to learn new skills”.
In some respects I agree with Michael. Yet, in my experience, we do not always recognize our natural gifts and skills. We tend to overlook them because they are a part of who we are and as natural to us as breathing.
My goal with this post was to create an asynchronous coaching/learning process to encourage you to explore your potential - to awaken/discover new skills and abilities that have been concealed or forgotten. I challenge you to embrace this as an opportunity to positively impact and shape your life and business.
Note: For the best experience try the larger version it will expand to fit your screen. Enjoy!
Time to complete the entire program in one sitting? Approx. 20-30 minutes or you could spread iy out watch over seven sessions (7 X 5 minutes).

About The Entrepreneurial Skill Sets Voice Thread
This voice thread has seven parts. You are in control of the experience. Remember, the best experience is via the larger version.
Each slide in this voice thread contains questions to jump start your discovery and a video or audio comment from Greg and Michael.
You can press the play button to sit back and watch, skip ahead one slide at a time, press pause and come back later to pick up where you left off.
You can leave a text, audio, or video comment within the voice thread to add or expand the discussion. Try it, you’ll like it!
No microphone? No problem, you can click the telephone icon, enter your phone number and the system will call you. Then you simply leave a voice message that will then appear in the voice thread time line.

P.S. Here is a short thread that explains what a Voice Thread is and how it works.
P.P.S. I suggest that you print off the worksheet and make notes as you progress through the voice thread to maximize your learning opportunity.

I like the voicethread format, very cool. It’s a little Myst-like, though, with videos popping up with the two of you. Not that that’s a bad thing . . .
Just wanted say that I’ve learned a great deal from your book :Tips & Traps for Writing an Effective Business Plan”. I still have lots of work to do,…. I am clearly on a better path.
Thanks a bunch!
As for the voice thread format, brilliance!
