You're a wine man, as Gary was. Your brother told me Gary was the best wine blogger in the world - one day when I was out buying a case from Curious Wines. That didn't lead me to look at Gary's blog. As far as I was concerned, Curious Wines heads were good enough wine enthusiasts for me. I haven't time to tune into wine blogs but I have time for business. If Gary's book appeals to you as "great", that's some recommendation. We have your brother Michael Kane coming to join in Smarter Egg discussion tomorrow. That'll be a privilege, to learn for your business experience Matt,

You've been thinking deeply about the essence of your business. I know because ever since I first met you, you've been restless. Always pushing a bit deeping into the source of your individual "snowflake" (my term) style. I've noticed how thorough you are, and how thought-provoking a person you are. You may be a documentary photographer (and a superb one of those) but if you keep at it you'll build a reputation on a broader field. You change perceptions. Your photos don't just tell stories, they challenge the eye to look closer at the action. That's what I'm expecting to experience as you get into podcasting and the rest. Ideas & marketing opportunities are great, but changing perceptions may be your greatest gift. We'll see. Roger,

I make no secret of my experience that you're a one-off. You've carved out a niche with your Smarter Egg learning groups in Cork Ireland, making a big impact. The knock-on results of your indirect influence, how can we best measure? It strikes me you're building a business in this little corner of the globe. This testing ground is perfect: Cork needs what you offer. But I love the challenge of thinking: how could the influence of Smarter Egg be spread? It's just not fair that we get all the benefits. Gary Vaynerchuk would have a view on your potential. Passion, work & stamina - Bob McCarthy and I were talking about this today - for another context. Perhaps I'm projecting my own issues on to your business opportunities? Perhaps we all share this dynamic world in which the technology has put it up to us. In the old days, we could say "If only I had the opportunities... if only I knew how..." Now, with this bloody internet miracle, there seems to be no excuse - only the limits I put on myself. Thank you for saying that was a "beautiful description". The hearing made me feel good . All I can say is 'it was easy to write that purpose statement. You made it so.' I wonder what lurkers think of this discussion? People who don't know you, or any of the rest of us? Perhaps a more detached observer will chip in? Please. Thanks Aodan.

There's something magical about how discoveries are shared and synthesised within the group. Your skilled writing has given me a beautiful description of the Smarter Egg purpose: "The group is there to help each other change habits, adopt new practices, change the world." Amen! And Roger, you've helped me with an always challenging and vital question of any learning engagement, what's the 'return on investment'? "I’m on course to double the monthly traffic to my blog since starting the SmarterEgg group three weeks ago." I hope we make it 3X or 4X before we're done. The real you is coming through like never before. It's fair to say that your readers want more of this great content. Aodan Paul,

The man has boundless energy that goes beyond my own. My tank is empty about the same time as he gets up to full cruising speed. Anyway, the results have been remarkable. I'm on course to double the monthly traffic to my blog since starting the SmarterEgg group three weeks ago. I'm also bursting with exciting ideas - both for blog content and social media outreach. Not only that. I'm finding that I can spot marketing opportunities everywhere all of a sudden. It's as if Gary's enthusiasm has lifted a veil from my eyes. Great book.
