A lot has been happening. So, I’m going to randomly fill you in on what’s up. Not that I know you care to read this long post. But, I consider you a friend. And friends do want to hear from each other, right? Anyway, here are some of the questions I’ve been getting.

WHY HAVEN’T I HEARD FROM YOU LATELY?

The reason you don’t hear much from me is because I’m using Twitter and Facebook more and more to communicate. Join Facebook, search for Rene Godefroy there, and make me your friend so that we can stay in touch. In fact, just follow these links to find me.

I know you are probably on Facebook or Twitter already. If you are not, stop resisting technology or you’ll soon become irrelevant and unemployable. Period. And I don’t mean to be rude. I’m just stating the facts.

Iam ready to pop the champagne! It’s my day! If you have been following me, you know I’m kind of humble, right? It’s not always about me. That explains why my photos are plastered everywhere on my marketing materials, books and web sites. LOL!

Anyway, I’d like to brag a little. Today (November 17, 2008) is a special day for me. It’s the day that has been declared as “The Rene Godefroy Day” in the city of Smyrna, GA!

Yep, on September 27, 1999, the major of Smyrna, GA, Max Bacon, issued the proclamation. The occasion was my 10th year anniversary as a US citizen. Thanks Read the rest of this entry »

I came across this powerful letter by Andrew Lahde that sums up a lot for me. Mr. Lahde is a highly successful hedge fund manager with a lot of money. I don’t know about you. I love it when someone stimulates my mind and causes me to think and reflect. That’s what I got from Mr. Lahde’s letter. Please drop whatever you are doing and read this letter.

If you’ve been watching television, particular CNN, Issue #1 is the economy. It’s everywhere. People are talking about it everywhere.

Not only is it in the media, you go to the coffee shops, they are talking about it. They are talking about it in the living room, in the dining room, in the break room at work. If you go to the grocery store, they are making some comments about the economy!

Now, I’m not an economist. There are a lot of things I don’t understand about the economy. But my question is, where is the money? Yeah, whatever happened to the money? Ok, do you remember the commercial for Wendy’s? Where’s the beef? Where’s the money? Read the rest of this entry »

This video recording is about your friends. I believe some so-called friends should never be allowed in your circle. And yes, it doesn’t matter how long you have known them.

Now, I am not saying you should not have friends. The reality is you will never be able to make it on your own. You need a team. You need others to help you. But if they are tearing down what you build, it’s time to zap them.

In this video, I reveal an entire segment on how to inventory your friends, which one to keep and how to tactfully get rid of the ones that no longer click with you. Click on this link to watch the video. Read the rest of this entry »
