    She has to write the book. There’s no going back.

    I’m jumping out of my seat with happiness. This is much needed encouragement. You’ll never know how much you’ve helped me. You are an amazing, pushy( in a good way) human being.

    Rain, she is the pushist. I’m not clear what she does for a living, but it better involve motivating people. (I feel a link referral coming on.)(I’m SLOW, OK?)

    “…but it better involve motivating people.”

    Yes, it does. :-)

    Yeah, Rain, you know you’ve already got an audience waiting in the wings. Hopefully auria’s pushist skills (to quote Diane) will give you the needed nudge!

    Doug, you are lucky because I know that you are going through a transition. Otherwise, I would have pushed, er, motivated you to take part in the challenge. But you aren’t off the hook. When things settle down for you, you’ll be hearing from me. :-)

    Auria, what motivates YOU to motivate others?

  8. auria corteson 04 Mar 2008 at 9:00 pm

    Diane,

    It’s hard to pinpoint the exact reason. There are many possibilities. One being that I had a rough childhood and my first grade teacher demonstrated the qualities I wanted to develop. Another is that I love seeing people go after what they want and succeed. At the core, I feel that if I’m part of others success then maybe I’m worth more than I was ever led to believe. Hope that makes sense.

    Again it’s hard to state exactly why, but that’s how I tick.

    Yes. Very truthful answer.

  10. auria corteson 04 Mar 2008 at 11:22 pm

    Thank you for acknowledging the truthfulness in my response.

    summed up best when you said, “that’s just how i tick.” Great question, Diane, and great response. I think most of us would be hard-pressed to explain why we are who we are, or sometimes even exactly what we are.

    “I’m worth more than I was ever led to believe.”

    You’ll never know how much you are appreciated.

    Thanks, Rain.
