Robbie,

I think you left something really important out of this article! BUT, after looking at your twitter feed I think I can answer my own question, which was: "What were the subjects upon which you chose to focus?" I think that they're speaking, creators, & storytelling... I'm happily envious of (would that be inspired by?) your ability to focus. You said 3 to 5, but you stuck to 3. Good stuff. I think this article is a very good reset. Books have been written that said less. Did you start with 5? Did you make any minor, or major adjustments along the way? Thanks a lot - you've inspired me and I just set the reminder in my daily calendar. No more aggrieved retweeting -> :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye: <- just good stuff that makes a difference.

Robbie, this is a very useful piece and I thank you for writing it. Like you I am a hestitant Twitterist and feel that I have been sitting on the edge of the pool or at best hopping in to splash around before jumping out again. No strategy just a morbid fascination at the promise and potential of this miasmic swamp. So I read your reflection as a professional adult communicating to other grown-ups in the room, grown ups with a business to run, a message to teach who would like to stop feeling like Isaiah crying in the wilderness in the unsubstantiated hope that the remnant are somehow getting the message. Thank you for writing this - it helps.
