Sage advice. I particularly applaud “draw your roadmap in pencil” – we should all remember that!

Thanks Jill. Good fortune begets fortune. Give and you shall receive. At its core, community is about exchange, right? That is what adds value, and moves us all forward.

So many of your comments resonate Liz; your suggestion to “Be an equal opportunity provider” has been my brain's meditation today. It's an energizing, timely reminder of how giving and receiving are the same side of the 'good business coin'.

Andre – thank you. I've been intrigued by the concept of social media being equated to 'mama's got a brand new bag' for some time now. I truly believe that the conversation is something we've been doing for centuries; it's all about putting a unique spin on it, right?

Yvonne – Love the post on Lipsticking and it was wonderful to find a companion piece that speaks to many of these themes. And the beat goes on…resonates for all genders. If we can tap into core values, we can achieve our missions.

S Diane – Flexibility becomes ever more important, particularly as we age and go through life's many transitions. The challenge lies in believing that we can reinvent ourselves. And then doing it!

Liz, you prove what I try to show on Lipsticking – that women are in this together, that we appreciate each other, that…we are social to the core! I just wrote about this, also…a bit…and said, “We are woman.” The power of our voice is greater than the sound of the universe trying to silence us.

I love your, “Identify but also engage your target audience. Find out what resonates at their core.” That goes for women and men. What resonates is what pulses. What pulses is part of your heart. The heart is the core of all we do. IMHO

Great advice, especially about drawing your roadmap in pencil. It's easy to feel discouraged when the path you've charted gets you lost, but realizing you can re-chart and find a new and better direction, is encouraging and very important to keep in mind.

Wow – bravo Liz! This hits the nail on the head when it comes to seeing this social revolution not as something that is restricted to “those who know technology” but to see it as an extension of your personality. And for women, like you said, I agree that it comes natural to many.

This is such a great resource not only for women but for plenty in the entrepreneurship world looking for great tips! Keep up the great work and hope to see another post soon Liz!
