You deserve to join the brag basket

By Small Biz Survival

Even though I call this the Brag Basket, it’s not really about bragging. It’s about sharing. I started this so you can introduce yourself, share some good news, or congratulate a friend.

The basket is open all weekend, from September 24 – 26, 2010.

Speak up and add yourself or another deserving soul in the comments. We all cheer, and everyone feels great. It lets you meet each other a bit. Reading each others’ stories brings us a bit closer to being a community.

How does it work? You write a comment on this post, email me, tweet me, or comment on Facebook. You tell something great about your week, or you give applause to someone who did good stuff this week. Or you celebrate something wonderful that you tried that failed.

This is not an ad. (I delete the ads.) It’s a conversation with friends. So jump in. And remember to cheer for each other.

New to SmallBizSurvival.com? Take the Guided Tour. Like what you see? Get our updates.

    I want to brag on Sheila Scarborough. She sure was dancing a fast jig this pass couple of weeks, doing her excellent job as usual keeping the blogs, tweets, and comments updated. Of course, we all know that Becky and Sheila can multi-task with the best of them.

    I want to brag on Becky for taking some vacation time and exploring Africa and the world really. I appreciate how quickly she posted the first pictures.

    Paul, cheers to you and everyone working together!

    Miss Dazey, thank you for cheering us on. I have tons more pics to post!

    Of course, I’ll brag about what a great time we had on safari. It was terrific to really unplug for a couple of weeks. (I did take the iPad, but just to play with my photos!)

Howdy!
