If you are looking for advice on how to be happier, more successful, etc., then just ask someone you look up to. Fire up your favorite e-mail program and start sending e-mails. Every personable speaker, author, blogger, or politician has some e-mail address or webform that you can use to provide feedback. Try it out. You never know what type of response you will get.

Just last night, I got into an e-mail exchange with Former Apple Executive, Venture Capitalist, Blogger, and Entrepreneur Guy Kawasaki. Check out the details here (http://mytoastmastersblog.com/2008/06/12/welcome-speakingalltopcom-readers/).

It all came about because I had gotten what I thought was an automated e-mail, but being curious, I e-mailed the person back. 10 minutes later, I am e-mailing Guy some comments.

Try it out. You never know what kind of relationship you can start.
