 Cue Bette Midler vocals...”Did I ever tell you you're my hero?” For those of you who never did, shame on you. But now there's another chance now on the Web site called “The Noticer Project.” Inspired by the Andy Andrews book The Noticer (Thomas Nelson) releasing April 28, the site gives visitors a chance to pin down the five most influential people in their lives. From that point, they decide how to best “notice” the person – whether taking them to coffee, writing a note or building a monument (I made that last one up).
- Other than paying honor to those who deserve it, “The Noticer Project” will also help draw more attention to the title, helping to “really move books” at retail, said Rusty Shelton, managing director of Phenix & Phenix, which, along with Andrews and publisher Thomas Nelson, is helping to promote the site: “We are seeing great buzz so far.”
- The book follows a mysterious character named Jones who appears at crisis moments to offer advice to strangers. Andrews writes,”when we notice things about ourselves and other people that allow us all to regroup, take a breath, and begin our lives again, the best is surely yet to come.”
- Are there five people who've contributed to your life in a meaningful way? I think the hardest part will be whittling your list down to just five. Also, will the key influencers also be your best friends or is it something to consider that sometimes even your enemies have contributed to your current path? Perhaps even strangers?
