This is the last post on Common Sense Guy. I made this decision over the holidays.
If you’ve been reading this blog for a while, you know it started out as a blog on three things: 1) career and life success, 2) leadership and 3) small business and entrepreneurship.
About a year ago, I created a new blog www.SuccessCommonSense.com. This blog is devoted to career and life success. Common Sense Guy remained the place where I blogged about leadership and entrepreneurship.
In February, my new book Straight Talk for Success will be out. Straight Talk is an outgrowth of my Success Common Sense blog. In it, I describe and explore the five elements of a successful life and career.
- Self Confidence
- Positive Personal Impact
- Outstanding Performance
- Communication Skills
- Interpersonal Competence
I developed this model for use with my coaching clients. They’ve given me such positive feedback on it, that I turned it into a book.
While I will continue my leadership and entrepreneurship consulting with existing clients, I have decided to refocus my business on my career and life success coaching practice.
That’s why I am closing down this blog. It will remain up -- with this post – until the end of January. If you want to grab your free copy of my book 4 Secrets of High Performing Organizations, you can do so until then by clicking on the image of its cover just below my picture on the top left side of this page.
Writing two blogs where I post four or five days a week is time consuming. By cutting down to one blog, www.SuccessCommonSense.com, I will be able to continue to provide you with the high quality, unique content to which you have become accustomed.
I value you, and thank you for reading Common Sense Guy. I hope that you will subscribe to www.SuccessCommonSense.com.
One more thing, as I am The Common Sense Guy, after February 1, www.CommonSenseGuy.com will direct you to my newly redesigned web site.
Thank you again for your support and for reading my Common Sense Guy blog in the past. I hope that you will continue to read – and comment on -- www.SuccessCommonSense.com.
You have my best wishes for your continued success, and my sincere hope that 2008 brings you peace, health, happiness and prosperity.

The Common Sense Guy
And what a ride it was. Thank you for your perspective, ideas, tips, insights, and providing so much common sense that just isn't all that common! What a wonderful job.

Bud, my advice would be to leave this up. You can't imagine or know how many links there are out there to this blog and they will be broken when you take the blog down.
By leaving it up, you continue to provide common sense guidance to people who seek it. Your good words will continue to work even though you are not continuing to write new stuff.
I understand that keeping up two blogs is too much especially since you've always been so content rich and provided meaty posts.
I really make a strong case for leaving this blog in place for others to see as they search for meaning and common sense.

Bud,
I will stay your reader and enjoy your thoughts in other link.
''Food for mood''
Common Sense Guy is very warm, cute, emotional, reachable and always reminds me on Your personality.
I personally conect You with this.
When somebody says on croatian '' zdrav razum'' which means common sense, i say to myself ''Bud Bilanich guy:-)
So, I would marry that link with this name on it.

Bud,
David Z. is right. You should leave this blog up and leverage all the links it has accumulated. Redirectng this domain will only lower your search engine rankings.
This post closes the blog nicely and redirects to your new blog; no use shutting it down.

Many institutions limit access to their online information. Making this information available will be an asset to all.
