Its a beautiful day here in Barbados. I am now on my way to work and I can finally read my rss feeds once more. Make sure that keep growing and stay focused.

Its been good to have a few days with the pressure of the promotion lifted and just relax with family and friends. Stefan has been off so we got to talk a lot and chill.

I still had to try and keep the focus on the work and aim to keep leading those I am responsible for.

It feels good to be able to pour into someone's life. I am making sure I keep reading and learning about business and money.

Its really a case where I am trying different things to see what works and what doesn't as soon as I can find something that does well, that will be all there is to it.

2009 is fast on its way and I am actually trying to me a little more open and connected to the people. To the marketplace. At the end of the day, these are the people who will make me or break me.

The people around me especially within BoomTribe are growing and building into a team. One thing I have learnt is that though money is very important in life. Its more important to people to be respected and appreciated.
More important is that people want to be a part of something greater than them. I am not talking about a special type of person. Its everyone. This is something I have seen proven over and over again.

I am reminding myself these days that 2009 - 2010 will be big years. The future can be scary and frustrating. It certainly is a gift though. To change what you current conditions are. That is where I am focusing.

I have experienced some success with the things I want to do. I have bearly taken a step.

And I am grateful to watch how that step has been able to inspire people to do their own thing and focus at growing their own careers.

Momentum is just beginning to gather. Its important not to break it now, and allow it to keep building.

It is always a challenge to balance intuition with clear logic thought.
The last few months have shown me that sometimes our intuition can be clouded to accept/go along with things which might not yield the result that you are looking for.
They say experience is the best teacher. This is true, but experience is only the best teacher when you allow yourself to explore some of the experiences you have had. And in some causes force yourself to relive the unpleasant experiences so that you can consciously decide to have better experience in the future.
Remember to stay focused and committed to your goals and dreams.

Wow, tonite a close friend said to me that I am able to make him stretch his potential.
I mean that means so much to me. As I look around I see people around me.

There are people around me who have mentioned that. Not in so many words, but they have mentioned it.

I give thanks for all the time I invested into learning about leading people to achieve their dreams.

Because its really starting to show some returns and I imagine it will only get sweeter.

I am glad to be able to share my story here as I live it, and not waiting till I have lived it, then to tell it!

Here I am just taking a moment to bookmark my history as I prepare to take myself to

I think that for the first time in months I can actually honestly look at my future and be positive.

I believe for the first time in my life I can truly say I am developing faith in my somewhat unconventional talents.

There are some core doubts, and demons I have had about myself and abilities all my life. And that prevented me from ever having true faith in my abilities. Too many times I have looked at others and seen them have more faith in me than I did in myself.

The kind of faith you can convince them otherwise.

Its a weird baptism, in life. Its not something I can explain.

I will be honest, I am fearful of really challenging things in the world. Its what I do, I have always be told I think differently. I always thought I thought the same as everyone else by apparently not.

I grew up in a culture where new ideas and new perspectives were not something that was championed. And I was not the best communicator. I have had some unpleasant experiences.

I am scared to truly go out and accomplish what I can.

I am at peace with who I am, and the path of who I am on the way to becoming. I am happy with me. Truly happy.

I really respect my talents and I am growing my life to leverage these talents.

Trust me I have failed at some things over the years. But I am here now.



I am so deep in thought these few days, I feel like I can truly sense things.



I am me. Just me.



Soon to be known as Corey Graham 2.0^N



That's me.



One love to you.

In recent times I have heard the following comments from those who are close to me and can gauge me well enough.

'its clear that you have a gift for people, based on your life'

'You are creative, and you never know what you are going to come up with next'

'Corey you got to give yourself more credit. You have done well so far'

These are all comments from people who are close to me. They are all comments that have really picked me up, and started me to bring more positivity into my life. They all jerked me to not look at the problems I have. But look at the opportunities and build on them.
They have urged me to focus more, to become more than I am demonstrating.
I think in recent times my self confidence is being tested in a significant way.
Another people I am close to mentioned I'm not the most assertive.
And I realize it is based on my self confidence. My sense of worth has been lowered a tad bit.

You know I am thankful for the comments deeply thank ful but I feel like I have a lot more to give to the world. And I need to learn how to tap into the untapped areas of my life.
I feel like the path before me is a little unclear. However maybe I need to focus on what is clear while leaving some time to have fun with the unclear.

I can admit I am scared, I keep wondering if I am dividing up my time, energy and money in the right ways.

One conviction I have though is to cut all the frills and really go after my ultimate dream.
I mean really start the day tomorrow with the email to energise and provoke Caribbean people, to come together.
Its not even a case of doing. Its to just let the passion be raw. Its a case of just unleashing a sleeping beast.
I believe I am scared. I am scared because the last time I unleashed my raw passion and creativity. I ended up with many other challenges. I couldn't control it.
I wonder if I am at a level where I can really control it now.
Where I can really channel my life.

I am not going to die with all my music still in me.

Certainly is just a case of having some discipline and a plan and execution.
Building a daily routine that develops me into the man I need to be.

I have lost sight of the man I need to be and that's allowed me to slow down.

Its time to revitalize myself.
That's what I need.

Its is clear now.

I will become who I need to become so that I can have what I need to have.

It does take its toll sometimes, yes life. It is not easy, when the things change in ways you did not expect. When secrets are revealed and dreams, passions considered to be broken.

It never is easy to pull away or remain faithful to the dream. Oh yes, do what is logical?

Hmm really? Does that make sense, when logic is a distant thought and emotions take over?



I have to be honest, I need to be a bit more real with myself what I am feeling at the moment in time.

Hmm, there needs to be a pure truth shared, so that something new van be formed.



Communication is important, understanding, clarity and focus.



The Red Button is still being built and developed.



I am thinking that I want to be a winner. I want to win at life and be able to accomplish my dreams. Leave an inspiring legacy that might be able to inspire others when they come to this point in the road.



You have got to build it, a connection at a time, relationship at a time and a brick at a time.



Positively and strongly step forward to play your role, not 10 roles, not 5 roles. Play your role in making all other roles work.

Your role might not be as your team leader or coach defines it. But there is a role you can play that will secure a victory. Play that role. Corey Graham 2.0

I've had a very interesting night, which started off with me having to defend my new Corey Graham 2.0 logo. A case was brought to me that it was not marketable, or was not commercial enough.... It made me think. After speaking with someone close to me it, sparked me to communicate and to express a few things to you.

Now over the course of 2008 I have invested a tremendous amount of time and energy in developing and maintaining my online social footprint through my various blogs and social network profiles. I am not trying to sell anything to anyone, I am merely trying to create a relationship with other persons out there who share my views etc. I charge people with the full responsibility to make a decision as to if they want to be a part of this relationship, to read, follow and comment on my blogs or choose if they want to add me as a friend on the various social networks.
Yes I am charging you to make your own decision. I am not trying to force things down your throat....
Much of marketing today has come down to forcing things onto people that don't need. Or better yet to persuade them that they need it. Although it adds no real value to their lifes.
The consumer is not charged with the responsibility to make the decision, in many cases there is complete disregard for your intentions...you know that. I can see you nodding your head now!


Recently I have been taking the time dig deep lay the foundations for my long range plans. To really live my dreams. As I understand it my core assets are my creativity and my passion for teamwork and building up people.....
If I can do nothing more that help/inspire others unleash their potential and achieve greatness, I will be satisfied with my life.
If I can become the type of person that you do not "spend time with", but rather you invest time. Then I am good, my life is complete.

Its so interesting. I used to think that being called a 'writer' meant you had good command of the English language.

As I have now become an avid blogger I now realise that I am certainly seeing being a writer is so much more.
To have an idea might be easy enough, but to then express it and communicate it with persons of all different walks of life and across different mediums is truly an amasing thing.

I have been taking some time today to just write, and express myself. I can now appreciate in a significant way the place I live because it allows me to take a mini retreat to just write.
Also I have to be glad for my blackberry and the guys at RexWireless for providing me with the tools I need to get my writing on.
Writing is certainly a very fulfilling hobbie.
And for me expressing ideas is even greater!

Recently I have been feeling a bit like we don't think that as a people its necessary to invest in building a good effective team.
I feel like the average person does not appreciate how value can multiply when you have good people around.
As I aim to practice leadership and teamwork in my day to day life and watch how the benefits can multiple in a tremendous way.

As I take the time to look around I can see how different forces are acting together to bring together a group of people who are very motivated, talented and ready to work. I see how I am to be a part of it. I am going to take the time to be able to keep up with these people and form something that will be remembered forever.

Today I learned that all the people I worked closest with on are very motivated and bent on living their dreams.

This is a stark contrast to where I was just about 1.5 years ago.

It definitely a different feeling when you know that you can work with people to help them accomplish their dreams.

In fact it makes me like I am living my dream. I want to be able to help persons live their dreams. I want to be able to keep talented people around me, and make them better for being around me.

I know that as time goes by we will only get better. Each failure will only increase our chance of success.

I have gotten lots of favorable comments about becoming 2.0 but I believe this is my most humble time. When I know that I am able to impact talented and very passionate people to be their best.

This moment is really a breakthrough moment for me, because without the shadow of a doubt I believe in people that believe in me.

Yesterday I was wondering when will be the right time to introduce myself as Corey Graham 2.0 Red Button. I know that the time is now.

Red Button is an interesting concept. Its fresh and different. Red Button is like the same red button pressed by a fighter pilot to launch a rocket.

Corey Graham 2.0 Red Button launches people into action to build their careers and become great.

That is my dream. Its been my dream since I started my first real entity Drenalin Productions.
