Yeah, we use Mint at well, although not so much for budgeting - we basically just use it to see all our accounts in one place.

Regarding #7 – I use mint.com, it’s great for budgeting and tracking your net worth. Oh yeah, net worth.

Great list! Personally, #4 has been huge in getting me ahead in my career. Finding ways to add value to some of the most mundane or otherwise “normal” jobs will get you noticed.

Great list Sean! I just started the auto financing, and it’s good to see how far you’ve come. That Europe trip was fun, but paying for it now. My fav is the last one. I am stuck though because I truly value honesty in all relationships and am good at creating a space where people can say difficult things. You’re right though because the negative comments although sincere chip away at a person’s sense of self.

I’ve never had a friend or acquaintance who told me they constantly learn valuable lessons from their son. You’re one of the best teachers I’ve ever had!

So absolutely true, Sean. These are all things I try to do myself, to varying degrees of success. Keith Ferrazzi’s “Who’s Got Your Back” is a great resource, as his is http://www.greenlightcommunity.com (no, I’m not affiliated) for unnetworking support.

Great list, the last one is my favorite. Gossip can be a hard habit to break, but nothing good comes of it.

Awesome list! Thanks so much for this. I really like “unnetwork.” The world would be a better place – & Kinko’s would turn a huge profit – if everyone followed your advice, Sean.
