Dialing 8 – Kammie Kobyleski: Passion Meets Purpose

By on May 19, 2007 in Brain Stew with 9 Comments

In hotels, Dialing 8 was calling long distance. In baseball, Dialing 8 is a home run. In blogging, Dialing 8 is a set of posts from a blogger that I find lasting long and being strong – the cornerstones.Kammie

Among the first words I ever read at Passion Meets Purpose:

"I LOVE thunderstorms. I was like a kid in a candy store. You couldn’t wipe the grin off my face. The feel of the COOL air whipping across my face was a lil’ slice of heaven." (sounds like Passion to me)

"How amazing is it, that Mother Nature knows what she needs best and doesn’t mind who gets pissed off in the midst of her temper tantrum!?" (a Purpose within the Passion)

And so began my addiction to Kammie Kobyleski and her message:

  1. The Search for Passion & Purpose
  2. I’m a Crayon Breaker! or Creativity Kicks Ass
  3. Delicious Ambiguity
  4. Visions of a Passionate & Purposeful Life
  5. Setting Your Soul on Fire & Creating a Ripple Effect
  6. L-O-V-E + Y-O-U = the GIFT of LIFE
  7. Who Do You Think You Are – and other Fears of Living on Purpose
  8. The 6th of July – Re-write Your Life Day

Two others that almost made this a Dialing 10:

I had the pleasure of a quick hello with Kammie at SOBCon07. If I could have a do-over, I’d have spent more time on her side of the conference room. Next year.

Find Your Social Media ROI

I hear it from a lot of business owners: “Where is the ROI with all this Social Media?“ If this is a question you ask yourself, maybe we should work together a bit more. We can work together solo, or via a professional learning community. Find and increase your ROI. There is a “there” there.

    Thanks for pointing to another place with passion and purpose, Mike – plus Kammie is a terrific story weaver. Her post on SOBcon made me feel as if I were there.

    What a great choice! Kammie is authentic and energy personified. She’s a pleasure to be with. She brings joy to life. Who could not benefit from knowing her or listening to what she has to say?

    Mike,
    Kammie probably put you at risk of doing a Dial 100! She lives her brand every day. She is purpose and passion personified. (Say that 10 times fast!)
    As always — great choice!

    Kammie is a rock star bar NONE! So cool to see her profiled her so more can see her passion and purpose. She is definitely worth spending more time with, and getting to know more.
    As Drew said, she lives her brand EVERY DAY, and that’s why I’m a big Kammie fan!

    Mike,
    Thank YOU so much for featuring me! It was awsome to see your smiling face and share a couple of quick hugs at SOB Con…
    It’s really cool to look back at these posts and see which ones resonate with you. As you know, sometimes we labor over a post and it’s received with silence…other times we just let ‘em rip and people who’ve never commented before rave about it.
    I just try to make them ALL sound unique, passionate and from my heart. I hope that my true voice comes thru loud and clear each time, as I hope to encourage and inspire others to always use their own voice, follow their own path and dance their own dance.
    YOU do an excellent job at that Mike and I appreciate you sharing me with your readers!
    Stay passionate friend,
    Kam
