			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://enlightenednetworker.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/thanksgiving.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-3231" title="thanksgiving" src="http://enlightenednetworker.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/thanksgiving.jpg" alt="Thanksgiving" width="250" height="166" /></a>This Thursday, people in the United States will be celebrating <strong>Thanksgiving Day</strong>. To me this is a special day, not only because of the delicious food I will be serving my family, but also because I will be surrounded by my loved ones, those who are dear to my heart.</p>
<p>That alone is enough reason for me to be &#8220;thankful.&#8221;  But another reason Thanksgiving is special to me is because it marks the beginning of the holiday season which has always been a very special time of year for me.<span id="more-3229"></span></p>
<p>I remember as a child I used to go to the toy store just a few short steps from our house and I would stand there for hours watching the colorful display of all the toys. The train set was especially fascinating to me. I never got tired watching it go around and around, through the tunnels and up the hill. Through the little towns and coming to a halt at the tiny train stations.</p>
<p>A train set was on my Christmas list for years, but I never got one. Neither did I ever get the teddy bear that I so longed for. But I did get some very special dolls.</p>
<p>Ooops, I got side tracked.</p>
<p>This post wasn&#8217;t supposed to be about Christmas but about Thanksgiving and giving thanks.</p>
<p>We have a tradition at our house to share the things we are grateful for before we start eating our Thanksgiving meal. Our boys never liked that very much growing up. They would have preferred to start eating as soon as we sat down at the table. And maybe they were also a little embarrassed to share their gratefulness so candidly.</p>
<p><em>&#8220;We&#8217;re not doing &#8220;that thing&#8221; again this year,&#8221;</em> they would ask. But sure enough we were. Sighs could be heard around the table and my husband and I would look at each other and smile.</p>
<p><strong>So, what am I grateful for this year&#8230;</strong></p>
<p>Well, for one I am very grateful for my health. I went through some rough patches this year but over all I am still in very good shape.</p>
<p>I am also very grateful for my wonderful family, my dear husband who never gets tired supporting me and our three amazing sons whom I am so very proud of.</p>
<p>I am grateful for George our boxer, for his unconditional love, his sloppy kisses and his great sense of humor. Laughter is the best medicine!</p>
<p>I am grateful to have a roof over my head, warm clothes on my back and food on the table. So many Americans as well as people all around the world don&#8217;t even have the basic necessities of life. It&#8217;s really sad! And no matter how bad things will become for us, we are still blessed and in better shape than almost 80% (or even more) than the popularity of the world.</p>
<p>And last but not least I am grateful for all of you, my dear readers who walked with me through another wonderful year of blogging. Thank you for reading my posts and coming back for more. I so appreciate you!</p>
<p>I would like to especially thank my Top Commentators so far. I know it&#8217;s early and the month is not over. I will write my usual appreciation post to acknowledge you all on Friday. By the way, that post will most likely be my last for 2011.</p>
<p>&#8220;Whoa! Wait a minute,&#8221; you might say, &#8220;the year is not over.&#8221;</p>
<p><strong>Making memories instead of making money.</strong></p>
<p>No it&#8217;s not, indeed, but for the past 10 years I have promised myself to take December off, but each and every year I have fallen short and not kept that promise.</p>
<p>This year I intend to keep that promise.  I will take the whole month of December off!</p>
<p>I know, I know, December is a great month to make money because people are in spending mode already.</p>
<p>Very true! But this year I will make memories instead of making money.</p>
<p>I will do what I wanted to do for a long, long time&#8230;enjoy the Advent, the time leading up to Christmas.</p>
<p>This may be the last year our sons will be living at home with us due to the bad economy. So I will enjoy their company. I will also finally read those Christmas books I have sitting around unopened. And I will bake some cookies and enjoy a cup of hot chocolate (or two) when I read them.</p>
<p>BUT&#8230; while I will be spending a lot of time just enjoying the season with my family, I will also be taking some time to sharpen my axe and learn new skills so that when I return in January I will be able to serve you even better.</p>
<p>The quote by Abe Lincoln comes to mind here:  <em>“Give my six hours to chop down a tree and I will spend the first four sharpening the axe.” </em></p>
<p>So thank you all so very much for your friendship and for your support throughout 2011, and I hope we will be walking side by side through 2012 as well.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>Have a very happy Thanksgiving!<br />
&#8230;and I wish you all things bright and beautiful this holiday season and always!<br />
I appreciate you all so much, thank you!</strong></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://enlightenednetworker.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/thank_you_note-copy.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1330" title="thank_you_note copy" src="http://enlightenednetworker.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/thank_you_note-copy.jpg" alt="Thank You!" width="150" height="150" /></a>Well, as you know, I took a little break the past two weeks. While I was hoping I would be able to stay away from the online world completely and immerse myself in a good book or two &#8230;</p>
<p>Well, I didn&#8217;t really manage to do that.</p>
<p>It seems when you are involved in an online business there&#8217;s ALWAYS something to do, ALWAYS something new to learn and at my age, learning goes a little slower. Those old gray cells don&#8217;t pick things up as fast as they used to. Maybe I should buy some of those video games for seniors they advertise on TV. Maybe those would help stimulate my brain and make things easier to comprehend and remember.<span id="more-2800"></span></p>
<p>What do you think?</p>
<p>But anyway&#8230;it was good to slow down a little and take matters more casual. It also was great to have more time to spend with my family and surprise them with a &#8220;Pancake Breakfast&#8221; once in a while or enjoy an afternoon at the movies.</p>
<p>While I was &#8220;away&#8221; sort of, you guys didn&#8217;t slow down and still left your comments and feedback on my various blog post. You&#8217;ll never know how much I appreciate all of you.</p>
<p>So, like I have done for quite some time now, I would like to highlight&#8230;</p>
<h2 align="center">The Enlightened Networkers<br />
Top Commentators for August</h2>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><a href="http://enlightenednetworker.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/Michael_Berry.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-2715" title="Michael_Berry" src="http://enlightenednetworker.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/Michael_Berry.jpg" alt="Michael Berry" width="69" height="69" /></a>Coming in first is last month&#8217;s second place winner <strong>Michael Berry</strong> whos blog focuses on personal development. If you haven&#8217;t checked it out yet, I highly encourage you to do so.</p>

<p>Brock&#8217;s latest post: <a href="http://www.brockblohm.com/sales-pitches-are-a-thing-of-the-past/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Sales Pitches Are A Thing Of The past</a></p>

<p>I have to add that I love all my readers no matter whether you leave a comment openly or just read my posts quietly in the wings. Without you, all of you, <em>The Enlightened Networker</em> would just simply cease to exist.</p>
<p align="center"><em><strong>So, thank you, to each and every one!</strong></em></p>
<p>Here’s an invitation to everyone visiting this blog:</p>
<p>I do write an appreciation post like this every month. So, if you would like to be featured as one of  <em>The Enlightened Networker’s</em> top commentators next month all you have to do is participate in the conversations, leave your feedback in the comment section and I will acknowledge you with your picture (if you are one of the top 3) and a link back to your blog post. (No sales or capture pages please.)</p>
<p>To Your Success,</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://enlightenednetworker.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/thank_you_jul.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-2714" title="thank_you_jul" src="http://enlightenednetworker.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/thank_you_jul.jpg" alt="Thank You July 2011 Top Commentators" width="150" height="191" /></a>The spotlight is on the top commentator award winners for the month of July. Is it just me, or is every month passing by faster than the previous one? And for some reason the closer it gets to years end the faster it goes. Hold on to your britches J</p>
<p>In any case, I am thrilled to have the opportunity to write this post of appreciation today as this is one of my favorite topics to write about.</p>
<p>Normally I highlight the <span style="text-decoration: underline;">top 3 commentators</span> for the month unless there are more who earned the top commentator award. This month we have five individuals who have achieved this.<span id="more-2713"></span></p>
<h2 style="text-align: center;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Congratulations to all of you!</span></h2>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Except for Michael Berry, I don&#8217;t think any of my top supporters for July need any special introduction as they are very active participants at <em>The Enlightened Networker</em> and I&#8217;m sure you have read some of their comments before. Actually, a few of the names will be very familiar to you as they are serial top commentator award winners.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><a href="http://enlightenednetworker.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/Marcus_Baker.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1968" title="Marcus_Baker" src="http://enlightenednetworker.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/Marcus_Baker.jpg" alt="Marcus Baker" width="69" height="69" /></a>Coming in at first place is <strong>Marcus Baker</strong> from &#8220;down under.&#8221; I always love to read Marcus&#8217; comments because they stimulate that &#8216;gray matter&#8217; between my ears and really make me think, much like the value-packed posts he is sharing on his blog. Also, Marcus is a master at keeping the conversation going which makes for very interesting comments at times.</p>
<p>Marcus&#8217; latest blog post: <a href="http://www.marcus-baker.com/network-marketing-internet-business/question-kills-conversations-social-media-marketing-tips/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Does This Question Kill Conversations?</a></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><a href="http://enlightenednetworker.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/Michael_Berry.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-2715" title="Michael_Berry" src="http://enlightenednetworker.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/Michael_Berry.jpg" alt="Michael Berry" width="69" height="69" /></a>Second place is occupied by a new name and face to this blog, <strong>Michael Berry</strong>. I can&#8217;t remember where exactly we &#8216;hooked up&#8217; but I&#8217;m glad we did. Michael has become a &#8216;regular&#8217; at <em>The Enlightened Networker </em>lately. In case you haven&#8217;t visited his blog yet it focuses on personal development.</p>
<p>Michael&#8217;s latest blog post: <a href="http://blog.prosperyourmind.com/2011/08/it-will-all-work-out/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">It Will All Work Out</a></p>

<p><a href="http://enlightenednetworker.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/Oliver_Tausend.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1966" title="Oliver_Tausend" src="http://enlightenednetworker.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/Oliver_Tausend.jpg" alt="Oliver Tausend" width="69" height="69" /></a>At third place I proudly present to you another very familiar face, <strong>Oliver Tausend</strong> from Germany. Oliver, much like Marcus, always leaves thought-provoking comments that engage you in further conversation. Reading Oliver&#8217;s blog and watching his videos you will find that he deeply cares about others and strives to make a difference in their lives. That&#8217;s just how he rolls. A caring person through and through! He also has a talent for intertwining his own personal experiences with the lessons he teaches which makes you feel like you really can relate.</p>
<p>Oliver&#8217;s last blog post:  <a href="http://www.askolivertausend.com/2011/08/oliver-tausends-blog-top-commentators-july/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Oliver Tausend&#8217;s Blog &#8211; Thanks To Top Commentators In July</a></p>

<p><a href="http://enlightenednetworker.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/Elmar_jan.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1766" title="Elmar_jan" src="http://enlightenednetworker.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/Elmar_jan.jpg" alt="Elmar Sandyck" width="69" height="69" /></a>In fourth place comes in another serial top commentator, <strong>Elmar Sandyck</strong> from Belgium. He has been a top supporter of this blog for quite some time now and even wrote a <a href="http://enlightenednetworker.com/internet-network-marketing-business/tap-mlm-hero/" target="_blank">guest post</a> a little while back. I am often a bit envious of Elmar, because he has a great way with words and (unknowingly) helps me to increase my vocabulary by sometimes using words I have to look up in the dictionary first to understand their meaning, haha. But that&#8217;s a good thing and something I am not only very grateful for but looking forward to as well.</p>

Gosh, you just got to love her. Another keep-the-conversation-going specialist. Adrienne always adds tremendous value in her comments. Her outgoing warm personality really shines through in her replies. If you haven&#8217;t visited her blog and watched some of her videos you are really missing out on meeting and getting to know an absolute wonderful person all around.</p>

<p>Spots number 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10 were occupied by Mavis Nong, Volker Schaefer, Jym Tarrant, Brock Blohm and Online Strategies respectively.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><strong><em>&#8220;Thank you so much to each and every one of you for your continued support and for adding great value to this blog with your thought-provoking and engaging comments. I so appreciate you!&#8221;</em></strong></p>

What happened? It seems like just yesterday that I took the decorations off of the Christmas tree and it won&#8217;t be long before the first snowflakes start to fall again here in Colorado. Is it just me, or does time go by faster as you get older? (Sigh)</p>
<p>But I don&#8217;t want to get sentimental, because today is a day of celebration and I would like for you all to celebrate with me.</p>
<p>As always at the beginning of the month I would like to highlight, congratulate and thank my Top Commentators. These are not just fellow bloggers but people I consider my friends.<span id="more-2537"></span></p>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">My most heartfelt thank you!<br />
You are truly awesome and I appreciate your continued support.</h3>

Highlighting my top supporters is my favorite blog post every month.</p>
<p><strong>Let me start off with giving my heart-felt thank you to each and every one of you who visit my blog</strong> and take the time to leave your thoughts and add to the conversation.</p>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">I truly appreciate all of you.<span id="more-2435"></span></h3>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>When I started out blogging I thought the story (or blog post) ends with my signature at the end. I couldn&#8217;t have been more wrong.</p>
<p>Comments are the continuation of the story. They are what brings it to live with the interaction of the commentators.  Comments are what makes the story complete.</p>
<p>There were times visiting other bloggers&#8217; sites that I learned more from the comments than the blog post itself. Can you relate?</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">But before I go off into why blog commenting is important and how it adds to the conversation let me get back to the topic at hand….</p>
<h2 style="text-align: center;">The Top Commentator Award Winners for May</h2>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>I have to apologize. I messed up playing around with the settings of my Top Commentator widget last week and it cleared itself early. While I do remember who occupied the top 3 spots at the time I don’t remember in which order.</p>
<p>So I’ll start with ladies first….</p>
<p><strong><a href="http://enlightenednetworker.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/jayne_kopp.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-2440" title="jayne_kopp" src="http://enlightenednetworker.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/jayne_kopp.jpg" alt="Jayne Kopp" width="69" height="69" /></a> Jayne Kopp | JayneKopp.com</strong></p>
<p>I am delighted to highlight Jayne for the first time as one of my Top Commentators. Jayne is a prime example of what I said earlier above about comments bringing a story to live with the interaction of the commentators. She respectfully disagreed with me on something I said in one of my posts and we had quite a nice discussion about it.</p>
<p>Jayne&#8217;s blog is about<em> &#8220;Blending Personal Development &amp; Internet Marketing Advice to Create Financial Abundance.&#8221;</em> I couldn&#8217;t have described it any better =)</p>
<p>Check out: <a href="http://jaynekopp.com/2011/05/27/online-network-marketing-choosing-the-right-sponsor/" target="_blank">Online Network Marketing &amp; Choosing the Right Sponsor</a></p>

<p><strong><a href="http://enlightenednetworker.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/Elmar_jan.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1766" title="Elmar_jan" src="http://enlightenednetworker.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/Elmar_jan.jpg" alt="Elmar Sandyck" width="69" height="69" /></a> Elmar Sandyck | EmpoweredOnlineEntrepreneurs.com</strong></p>
<p>Elmar&#8217;s is a familiar face as he has been featured as one of my Top Commentators quite a few times. Although we have never met, or even spoken on the phone, I feel like I’ve known him for years.</p>
<p>Elmar has a great way with words and his comments reflect the wisdom of his own blog where he writes about topics that are sure to empower your entrepreneurial mind. I know they do mine, that’s why I love reading his posts.</p>
<p>So if you haven&#8217;t visited his blog yet I encourage you to do so. Get a taste of it from the guest post, <a href="http://enlightenednetworker.com/internet-network-marketing-business/tap-mlm-hero/" target="_blank">&#8220;How to Tap the MLM Hero in You&#8221;</a>,  he wrote for me a little while back.</p>

<p>Another very familiar face and no stranger to the Top Commentator Award is my friend Marcus from down under. Marcus has supported my blog from the very beginning and I appreciate his thoughtful comments. A trick I learned from him is leaving comments with questions to keep the conversation going. That&#8217;s brilliant!</p>
<p>Marcus’ blogs about how to build a successful network marketing internet business. I love visiting his blog because I always come away enriched, enlightened and smarter. I also feel that sometimes he speaks directly to ME in his posts. That’s how you build a connection with your reader.</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>There you have them The Enlightened Networkers Top 3 for May.</p>
<p>Will you be one of them in June?</p>
<p>It&#8217;s easy&#8230;all you have to do is comment. I usually highlight the Top 3 Commentators unless there are more who earned the “Top Commentator Award.”</p>
<p>To Your Success,</p>

<h3 style="text-align: center;">The Winners of the Top Commentator Award for April 2011</h3>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><a href="http://enlightenednetworker.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/Tosin_jan.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1767" title="Tosin_jan" src="http://enlightenednetworker.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/Tosin_jan.jpg" alt="Tosin Adeoti" width="69" height="69" /></a> Grabbing the top spot this month is my good friend <strong>Tosin Adeoti</strong>.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://enlightenednetworker.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/wrong_number.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-2228" title="wrong_number" src="http://enlightenednetworker.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/wrong_number.jpg" alt="Wrong Number" width="200" height="133" /></a> Can a wrong number be the right number after all? You tell me. In any case, I had the most interesting phone call a couple of weeks ago.</p>
<p><strong>It was Saturday morning and I was going about business</strong> as usual when our phone rang. I glanced over to check Caller ID, but because it was our second line, Caller ID didn&#8217;t show up. So after the second or third ring I picked up.<span id="more-2227"></span></p>
<p>For some reason (I must not have been quite awake yet) I just said, <em>&#8220;Hello?&#8221;</em> instead of my usual more business like<em>, &#8220;Hello, this is Ilka Flood how may I help you?&#8221;</em></p>
<p>The lady on the other line said… in perfect GERMAN,…<em>&#8220;May I speak with your mother?&#8221;</em></p>
<p>Huh?</p>
<p>For a second or two I was totally puzzled. For one, I was taken aback by the lady speaking German, and two, why would she want to talk to my mother?</p>
<p>So I said, in German of course, <em>&#8220;You must have the wrong number. Whom did you want to speak to?&#8221;</em></p>
<p>She told me the lady&#8217;s name and that just confirmed to me that indeed she had the wrong number.</p>
<p><strong>Now, normally the conversation would have ended here</strong> and we both would have hung up. However, this was no ordinary case of a misdialed number. Over the next few minutes it became more interesting.</p>
<p>The lady asked me why I was speaking in perfect German. So I told her, that I <span style="text-decoration: underline;">was</span> German. She then went on to ask me where I live and I told her I lived in Denver, Colorado. (I assumed she was calling me directly from Germany. I shared with you before <a href="http://enlightenednetworker.com/prospecting/assume-prospect-questions/" target="_blank">what assume means</a>, hehe.)</p>
<p>That totally surprised her, and she continued to tell me that she was part of a &#8220;Kaffeeklatsch&#8221; in Parker and that was the reason she wanted to get ahold of &#8220;my mother.&#8221; (A Kaffeeklatsch is kind of a German thing where ladies get together over coffee and cake and just hang out and talk and have a good time.)</p>
<p><em>&#8220;Oh,&#8221;</em> I said<em>, &#8220;that&#8217;s interesting, I live in Parker too.&#8221; </em>That must have confused her a little as she went on to ask, <em>&#8220;well, where do you live now, in Denver or Parker?&#8221;</em></p>
<p>So I explained to her, that I had assumed she was calling me from Germany and that is why I told her I lived in Denver. Nobody in Germany knows where Parker is, but Denver is familiar to everyone.</p>
<p>Anyway, we really hit it off and talked some more about this or that and then she invited me to join the Kaffeeklatsch. She thought I would really fit in great with the other ladies, but she first had to confirm it with the organizer.</p>
<p>In the meantime I&#8217;ve been there a few times and I met some very lovely German ladies. It&#8217;s always nice to make new friends, but when those friends are from your own country then that&#8217;s extra special.</p>
<p><strong>Here&#8217;s the interesting part &#8230;.</strong></p>
<p>The lady only misdialed one single digit of our phone number.</p>
<p>Just think about that&#8230;What were the odds that she would connect with another German speaking person? There are millions of people living in the Denver Metro Area.</p>
<p>Every time I think about this it just boggles my mind.</p>
<p>But anyway, twice a month from now on I&#8217;m taking a day off to enjoy it with my new friends.</p>
<p><strong>Take Away&#8230;</strong></p>
<p>So what does this have to do with my network marketing business?</p>
<p>Absolutely nothing, and absolutely everything. This business is about people. It&#8217;s about the connections we make and about the relationships we develop from those connections.</p>
<p>Life really has a funny way to connect people. We never know where these connections may lead but I truly believe that EVERYTHING happens for a reason.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>To Your Success…</p>
