Everyday, I get messages from a number of people telling me about the great content that they’ve been reading on this site. This is not meant to brag. The point is that often times that great content is not mine. At least once a day, Anthony LaFauce (who likes to be called Tony) posts an extremely insightful article that sparks discussion. Comments pour in an often times that comment is “Great article Nick!”
While I have plenty of good articles, all too often I am credited for work that is not mine. Perhaps that’s because my photo is on the sidebar of this blog (that’s something I will soon take care of), but the reality is that Anthony takes the cake when it comes to writing on social media. So if you want to thank the writer of the article, first read who the author is. Take a look at the image below:
When you write a comment about the author of the post from now on, first look at who wrote it. Increasingly you are going to see that I’m not the author of the article. While I think my articles may be God’s gift to the earth, the reality is that they aren’t and there are other people that deserve recognition. I will continue to write but so will others so take a look at the author and recognize who wrote the magnificent work of art that is on display 
One other thing, Anthony would absolutely love for you to follow him on twitter. Also, while Anthony writes for me on occasion he also manages all my P.R. He can do the same for you! So if you are looking for a master of communications and social media, get in touch with Anthony. He’s the man!

The diagram above is most helpful ;-) It is also a testament to the shoot first ask questions later phenomenon that blog scanning breeds.
SLOW DOWN PEOPLE! What's the hurry? (I am saying this to myself as well)
I also want to add that it takes a true leader and friend to give others credit where credit is due. I applaud you for your recognition skills and full-post to do so.
