To Be Thankful

Greetings! Today in the United States is Thanksgiving. It is a wonderful day to spend with family and friends. It is common for families to talk about what they are thankful for as they eat dinner on this day.
What a missed opportunity, however, if they do not do this simple task every day. In even the most dire situations, there is always something to be thankful for.
I have had a very difficult year. In April I was transferred at my place of business and placed with a boss who, to put it kindly and mildly, is very difficult to work with. I had health problems this summer that lead me to wonder if I was going to leave my two young daughters orphaned. This fall I lost my best friend, leaving a huge void in my life and in my heart.
Yet, I have always been a thankful person and I look daily for big and small things to be thankful for. Since this is a blog about my adventures in internet marketing, I wanted to take the time to formally thank all of those people, especially those people I met this year, who have propelled me forward in my internet business.

Weekly Wrap-Up: Productivity

Greetings, All!
Another week is behind us. I hope it has been a productive one for you. If you have been journaling, you can look back and see what you have done this week that has worked and what has not. Most importantly you can see all that you have achieved and pat yourself on the back!
This week I finally finished my first ecourse titled: Joint Venture Secrets. It is a five part course that explains what a Joint Venture Partner is, how to go about finding these partners and creating the partnership. Sign up in the box at the top right and tell me what you think of it. I will be writing a blog about this new ecourse in greater detail later this week.
Creating this ecourse was a big achievement for me and I am happy to have completed it. The only reason this happened was because I had put it on the top of my to-do list last Sunday, and committed to it on Alex Jeffrey’s forum. I had been putting it off, doing other things, but finally I said enough. Once it was on the top of my to-do list, and I had publicly committed to it, I just had to stop procrastinating and get it done.
In this week’s Weekly Wrap-Up, in keeping with the productivity theme, I would like to mention David Walker’s blog post titled, Why You Never Get Anything Done. David’s blog is fantastic, filled with easy to understand, yet very informative pieces that will propel your internet marketing efforts forward. David has also written a very good blogging ebook titled, Stop Slogging Start Blogging. I have downloaded it and read it several times over. His ebook is free, but I have found it to be priceless. It is filled with tips about how to become a successful blogger and internet marketer through blogging. This ebook can also be found on David’s blog.
