You’re really inspiring me Craig… I’m so glad I found this post… You have a gift, a raw talent… I have had a break from PR for a number of years and fell into education, which I was absolutely passionate about… now I am thirsty to get back into PR and am looking for ways to bring my experience in education to the PR world and to convince hirers that I can add value… Your blogs help me put things in perspective, so thank you… really thank you… and thanks for being so raw… It makes you human and wonderful.

[...] Public relations was a life saver in many, non-hyperbolic ways. I discovered it in a sort-of accidental manner but its mix of creativity, hard-nosed business requirements, collaborative dimensions, making a difference to organisations, their stakeholders and society and, of course, the actual communication involved, I find pretty thrilling when the wind is in the sails. “I first got to know Craig in the virtual world, and came to admire his enthusiasm and energy. There are always people about whom you say, ‘I should have done that, if only I had the time/energy/initiative/opportunity.’ Craig is one of those people, so it was a complete no-brainer [to participate] when he asked me to contribute to his project.“ Tony Jaques (Australia) [...]

Clare and Olivia. You guys are definitely ‘ones’ of a kind as well. Our long distance friendships are much appreciated.

I agree with you, Olivia, in focusing on passion and not revenue. Happiness is much more likely to come with the former and that is priceless.

Re the red cards, I don’t hold you responsible. And commiserations re USA as of last night, too, with England likely to be next up for the long flight home…

i like this…….. I love your honesty…… this works for me.
You are one of a kind.
I found my vocation twice in my life and celebrate doing what one is best at and loves more than anything.
I found my vocation with my Interior Design job and my painting.
I always encourage my friends to pursue what they love and not what makes them money just to pass the time during the week and live for the weekends.
Sorry about all the red cards craig 2010 South Africa.
You and Andrew have got me hooked on “football”. Soccer rules.
It has been a fabulous 3 weeks and the USA team has been so exciting to watch. Love you. Olivia
